Probably because China is a much larger volume in terms of sales. Stiga wants to ensure larger market share. If they don't set the price lower. They won't get the sales volume needed .

I use to work for a manufacturer in different field. The price of item is different according to local market condition and what they can afford to pay. The item cost of manufacturing is very low in relation to end user sales price.

May I ask, why is the stiga dna future so much cheaper than the other versions? Is it like a glayzer vs dignics?
No. Glayzer is close to Dignics. DNA Future M is far from DNA Pro M. Pro M is somewhat a decent tensor rubber while Future M is a thing for newcomers. It isn't fast or super grippy. It just controls the ball well. It's like Vega Pro and Vega Intro

The rubbers are made in Germany.
Big customers can buy directly from Germany
Smaller customers buy from Sweden.
The stock goes from Germany to Sweden.

So if you get stock directly from Germany, you save on freight costs of GER-SWE.

Secondly, Stiga is way more aggressive on the price in China than any where else in the world.

Thirdly, Stiga has raised pricing all over the world (for those buying from Sweden).
So the ones who can buy from Germany will survive. The ones buying from Sweden will not.

Not sure if it is a wise move or not.

Most "common" equipment on chinese sites like aliexpress are fake, even blades like original clipper wood or dynasty carbon or whatever are all fake. Very rare to find real rubbers and blades. Only Chinese products are real, like goldarc for example or hurricane. If something looks too fake to real, then it more likely is.

Why are Stiga rubbers in China so much cheaper than in other countries? Like half or third of the price and they’re not even produced in China.
Because rubbers sold in China do not come with freedom. You see, the price of freedom is high.
