Mostly because it costs a ton per combine and has a trivial of like 64728472947372. You're not paying for the successful combine, you're paying for their cost. Which may have included 2-3 failed combines and lost mats in some cases.
If it costs 500 to do a combine and they charge 750 a piece, then if they fail a combine they have to sell two pieces to make up the loss. So theyve lost three sets of mats and they're only where they started.
They charge a big markup because its what it takes to make it worth their while.
