They probably view us as an inconsistent and unsustainable market with low and difficult to predict demand- whilst they do Eastern-made valves with "familiar" designations, they are a small selection of types that have a reasonable demand and mark-up potential.
It's great to see that Blore Edwards offer this service, though- I wouldn't be surprised if they saw a place in the market for supplying older type pots for continuing legacy requirements like the military and other professional users. As said, typically £7 isn't monstrous for a small-run service. I'm tempted to order a few straightforward types with "oddity" values as spares for e.g. the AR88 RF gain and noise limiter controls as a mark of appreciation for a useful service.
