Why is the Lion's Mane 8:1 powder more expensive than the capsules?

On a per serving basis, assuming the serving is 500 mg, the capsules, weirdly enough, seem to be cheaper than the powder itself. That's only the case for Lion's Mane 8:1. Every other powder/capsule comparison seems to be slightly cheaper for the powder, which makes sense.
Lion's Mane 8:1 180ct (500 mg/capsule) = $79.99 ===> 1 capsule \~ $0.44
Lion's Mane 8:1 60g Powder = $54.99 ===> 1 500 mg serving \~ $0.46
Sorry for being a total noob. Am I missing something? Please let me know if I'm wrong.

The 180ct capsules has more total powder than the 60g powder does. We can amortize the fixed packaging costs over more doses the higher the amount per bottle/jar. That being said, we just lowered the pricing of the 60g to be more in line with the capsule pricing.
