Just because they can??? Their parts departments have to be gold mines! My last purchase, a lower grain tube for the incline auger on a CIH '88 combine. CIH dealer $260. A+I brand from Sloan Express $172 and the A+I is thicker than oem. That's an $88 profit if Sloan Ex were selling it at cost. Sorry for the rant! Craig
