I don't understand either. Outsourcing only makes sense if you charge more than the people you outsource to, but this isn't the case as far as I know; Avsun have pretty low prices (hence so many people commissioning them I suppose) predilicted on the basis of them being inexperienced and looking to build a portfolio. If it's just the bases then they fur the heads themselves I guess that makes sense as furring adds a lot of value, but here it's JUST a base commission so they're not increasing the value or adding anything.

Only other thing I can think of is the company is composed of several makers spread around the country, but that rarely works out well (remember the debacle with Kitt Creations?). It might explain why they have SO much on their commission list though
