Digikey is also a HUGE supplier that is selling a great quantity of items.
AndyMark almost certainly is purchasing the potentiometers at a higher price than digikey is, and therefore must charge more.
Often I buy products even with the "AndyMark" markup as I eliminate an order by doing so. We're always buying AndyMark products during season, but we may not order from digikey or someone else that often. So if I need 1-2 of something, it can be cheaper to pay more per item, but save on overall shipping and hassle (eliminates going to another site, filling information out, etc...).
