alexey remember you have setup fees which don't change regardless of
the size of the batch (factory-dependent), you have component handling
and transportation fees, and you have "over-runs" on components.
trays are say 900 per tray, if you buy 2,000 you have an over-run of
800.  tape and reel is 2500 typically: if you buy 2,000 you have an
over-run of 500, and it's just bad luck if you want 3,000.  no,
*nobody* will sell you part-reels: they get thrown away, storage and
stock maintenance costs are not worth the effort.

then there is testing, handling, shipping, tax and more.
