I'll tell you why. The designers that are getting the cut are happy to do this for the cut they get. The middleman who "did nothing" actually found someone who can deliver on time. And if all parties are happy then what's the problem?

If you're unhappy with being charged a "triple" price, have fun going through elance.com to weed out someone who will actually deliver.
