You're probably right. Too many posts on here present personal (uniformed, innaccurate and downright wrong) opinions as facts.
You can look at almost any sentence that starts with "the fact is..." or "the reality is..." and be pretty certain that what follows is either popular myth or made up on the spot to support a personal grudge because everything in the world is Someone Else's Fault.
Go read the regulations, and work out a fully costed proposal to make these parts in a way that would be compliant with them. That would have to include a proposal to set up an organisation which meets the legal requirements to be an aviation supplier as well, of course, and would then have to show how the costs of the latter are recovered from the sales of the former.
What has been said in this thread would be the equivalent of someone complaining about a £12,000 charter quote when he has worked out that the aeroplane will only use £300 of fuel. It is obvious here that the complainers haven't the faintest idea what is needed to produce these items, they just whine about the cost like they probabl;y whine when it rains, or when there are traffic jams.
This is not grown-up behaviour, you know.
