Same reason as any core. If "Unfinished Sprite Bumpers Are Us" was next door 
and lobbing out un-chromed good bumpers every time he asked for one, there 
would be no problem. He always has a supply of proper raw material. He took a 
one-time cash hit to have a bumper in inventory waiting for a buyer, and now 
magically he's got customers pulling one out of stock every time he gets an 
order. 

Also, if you're trying to penetrate a spares market and you know you have a 
superior product that offer way lower life cycle cost, you might, for instance 
offer a smoking deal on core returns of your competitor's part so you can take 
over his aftermarket. 

Or so I'm told.
