The factories are making about the 10-15% profit with the ex-factory price, then when the product reach the retailers usually it will selling at about 100-200% from the ex-factory price.

actually USD$10 can buy very nice 1:24 or even 1:18 models oledi.....but its ex-factory price which you cant get unless you buy in bulk.

The industry is very competitive in China and many factories are selling goods with amazing price that you wont dare to imagine. Thats why the whole world are rushing to china to buy products.


But one thing is many of these factories treat their workers badly.....the IPOD oem maker in shenzhen was reported that their workers were made to stand for 10hrs a day, cannot talking and restricted to go toilet during the working shift.This same company also making sony PS-2 console and some other branded mobile phones.......I been to their factory before...but after all they can consider not the worst because atleast their working enviroment is fine and the OT are well paid.Many other factories are worse.So the low price is achieved through the blood and sweats of the local ppl...
