The difference can be in the construction (one piece, two piece, etc), the materials, carbon fiber, various alloys, etc.

Bats can be crafted to be balanced, end loaded, etc., and the materials used can impact that and drive the cost up and down accordingly.

Finally, marketing and what the market can bear. Much like the golf industry discovered, a person purchasing a $400 driver has a perceived difference in performance than a person with a $200 driver. Don't think this hasn't trickled into the bat industry. Much of the pricing is artificial inflation for profit.
