Tell us what you exactly want,
If you want a rtestricted keyway then the price quoted isnt a bad one,
If you simply want to sell masterkeyed locks then you need a pinning kit for the locks you want to sell,
If you want a bag of parts like shells, cams, pins, springs etc then someone else will have to answer as i start from a new working lock and rekey that if nessacary,
If the job requires multiple master keying or repin ning the price of said cylinders are so cheap theres not much cause to do it yourself and most actually buy them already done as you have said,
It also depends on what locks you want to sell, if you want to use the cheap and nasty crap then the type of person wanting masterkeying etc will not want them as it tends to be commercial reasons and they dont want shite on the doors,
If its for slum lords then simply buy them ready done its not ecconmical for you to sit there for a day rekeying locks when you could have bought them already done for a few pounds more, the customer is paying for them anyway and they would either have to pay you to do it or for locks already done, may as well save your time and any headaches and posable call backs for sticky locks,
