If you are so incensed at the cost of these parts, then how about you do your own R&D and make them from scratch yourself.

If you are unwilling to do this, then don't demand that others do exactly the thing that you personally are not prepared to do.

Your choices are simple ... pay the asking price because you want the parts, OR do the R&D yourself and seek to recover your R&D costs over what you believe to be a reasonable volume. There is clearly an element of investment risk here.

Just because you "believe" you should not have to pay the ask does not make your view any more "right" than Voodoo when they set the price. If you don;t like the price, the consequence is you don't purchase and you can seek an alternative solution.
