It totally stacks up, I'm afraid. You pay more, you get a better price. Simple inducement to extract more money from customers. It also really, really helps with cashflow.
If you want to persist with your car hire analogy, then I bring to you attention 'loyalty cards'. Rent lots of cars and you get either better prices (for being a loyal customer) or other incentives.
And are you sure that we are 'mates'?
