Apparently they take a 50% cut of anything you book through them.

Seems excessive.

Major supermarkets have over 50% markup on foods.
Clothes shops put 350% markup on everything.

That's the way business works.

Dive shops = 100% markup on general gear, only 10-15% on cameras.

God, it's like they're a business or something. Clearly some sort of profit scam.

It's not the profit as such, but 50% seems a little excessive.
You must have to be desperate to promote your business this way, which smacks of exploitation.
