gps module cost estimation

Hello all,

Does any one know why do ublox lea6h gps evaluation boards ($100) cost less than the module ($120) itself?

Here's the link for eval board that i bought at $99.99:

  • Many MediaTek modules are around $25-35 in small orders from many sources.  

    For essentially the same specs I wonder why people spend 4-5x as much?  Last time I compared them the only real difference I saw was the antenna options, and I think those can be had in some of the MT modules.
