So when you purchase someone else's project, they typically lose a lot of the money they put into it and you have a cheaper built Jeep. Problem is that you get it the way they built it, not the way you would build it.
My 99xj was already built as a promotional vehicle for some 4x4 shop at Paragon and the 8000 I paid was less than the cost of the add-ons not even counting the cost of a 99xj with 40000 miles.

well I was thinking of making things your self(bumper,cage, ect) but if you are buying bolt on parts then yes,, you can buy a modded 4x4 for about the same price as you can a stock one to a point.
