This is the model of the entire US economy

A lot of the driver and boutique part companies really don't care much about another companies bottom line. So they may cut them a break on bulk orders but not as much as you would expect.

Let me do a poor job of explain!

Company A makes 100 widgets that sell for $1 each.

Now if company B comes along and says we can buy the widget in bulk for $0.50/1000

Now company A has to produce more product. Which means more materials, payroll, etc..

So now company A decides why should I sell the widget for $0.50 or even $1. I'll just raise the price to $5. Now they can make fewer widgets, save on materials and payroll and making more profit per widget.

This is a poorly explained example of what the entire US manufacturing economy is based on today. Just look at your morning box of cereal and measure your roll of toilet paper.
