In small q'ties the price is higher (Tom won't buy them in large q'ties most likely)
When one has a 1000 units made this means an investment of $ 12,000 extra.
Every $ counts and most bulk manufacturers do want to sell something new every few years or so as well.
Tom's design is not limited in this way and simply uses high quality parts instead of skimping on everything buying stuff that works 'good enough' for a few years.
