Maybe I'm wrong though.... To each their own I guess.  |
The market for this bar is actually very small. BR does not make the bars themselves. They contract out the work to a fab shop. I am confident their margins are not very high on the bar and it was likely the fab shop that repurposed the jigg set up when they stopped making the bars.
If I were you, I would find a fabricator and get a better bar made. Any qualified shop can make you a much better bar than the BR bar.

I don't know why you're upset. They destroyed the parts that are necessary to create the piece.
To their point, the E82 market SUCKS for these type of things.

This is really it |
This is it. He doesn't own the jig. There are costs associated with "renting" space and material for the jig and have a shop fab them for him.
That has its own associated costs. And if the fab shop has reasons to repurpose it, he can either make more parts, only for him to really sit on them and never sell.
VAC made half cages before, why not let's go yell at them?
He wasn't a dick, douche, or rude. He gave you legit answers
