I would say when you consider he only had ~$250 in lamps inside them, throw in roughly another ~$200 in HID parts and, IIRC the buyers lamps there was a good profit made on them.
Those prices arent for bulk purchases either, which he would have done.
A one-off setup can get the price up there quickly, but mass producing them is something completely different.
Halos are easy, some clear acrylic rods, heated and bent around a tube the size you want. Notched either on the inside (facing the lamp) or on the front (facing out) and lit with two LEDs. Not hard to build knock-offs. OEM BMW pieces go for a bit more.
