Unfortunately prints like that take considerable time to print, that's why the high cost. I'm sure they price by time and material costs. Those two items combined, even with their machines that I'm sure print faster than mine are probably three hours to print.

Xometry is a pretty good outfit. I'll submit the file and see if there are any options that can be tweaked for a lower price.

Update: Yep, looks like that's what it is. They don't offer the less expensive, easier to print materials like PETG. Might be that other places do. The quote I got was for ASA which typically would be printing in a heated enclosure in a manufacturing scenario. Interesting that there is no volume discount ... 1 costs the same per piece as 100.
