Why shouldn’t they?

Because they are a for profit company with a billionaire ceo. Making profits it's their job.

BTW, try putting together a same or better spec build yourself and get back to us with the cost.

The price you pay for something in a store is not the same price valve pays for a stock of parts. They buy the same stuff for a lot cheaper and resell it at an higher price to make profits.
