I own a machine shop and several people have brought these things in. I always get a laugh out of it. I even had one guy ask me if he could "just use one of my mills for an hour". To be honest I dont know how any of the manufacturers make lowers as cheep as they do. 80% or finished. I bought an Anderson when they were $59 and felt it was a great bargain.
Mill time is $100 an hour
Anodizing is a $75 min charge from my vendor.
7075 aluminum billet $15
Thats all before you go through the FFL issues, insurance etc....
I go to my local LGS and he will sell me as many lowers as I want. the serial number and NICS check is fine with me.
