Why Does Steel Cost More Than Finished Parts

My scrap yard has zero good stuff, its all rusty scrap! I guess it depends on what your using. I order from a steel company direct a few thousand pounds sometimes and get it delivered. Unload it with my little Kubota tractor. Tool steel comes from McMaster a few pieces at a time, I get it next day out of Atlanta. I have a HD flat deck trailer and a 3500 dually, I've hauled lots of stuff home over the years too for free. Some folks just want their place cleaned out, I love those people.
