It's $527. You have the choice of making it more expensive, but that's YOUR choice.

There is no intellectual property. It's just a big bore kit.

Keep in mind that there is a fair bit of labor, and expertise involved, and good luck getting a quality piston and rings for $80-$100.
He bores your cylinder if you send it in, or a core cylinder if you prefer. It's your choice.

I have a similar business, and trust me, those prices are more than fair.

On the core charge, I charge $150 core, and in almost 10 years, and hundreds of jobs, I have received only 3 cores back. It really pisses me off that my customers do that. Bill and I have had this discussion, and he has the same problem. WE NEED THE CORES TO KEEP PROVIDING THIS SERVICE. People just don't seem to care.
