Why are gin poles for assembling for example, Rohn 25, so expensive?

The Rohn one is over a thousand dollars and even the kits are $250 and don't
include the tube.

 

Isn't it just a pulley, rope, pipe, and some clamps?

Do I need to know anything important if I fashion my own from hardware store
materials?
