Must be fake products. The weights given for blades and rubbers are slightly off ... :-)

Just joking, they are probably OK and items legit, and the pricing seems to be good.
Site content (e.g. those weights) does not inspire great trust though, so I would try a modest initial order...

Yeah, Hurricane King at a price of Stiga OC (or a bit more) - it looks too good to be true.

As for the weights, you must be talking about the shipping weight which is used for calculating shipping costs. For example the Dhs PG7's details say that it's 89+-3g, and the shipping weight is 0.250kg = 250g.
This is totally normal and for example prott.cc has similar weight system.

The blades I looked at (Many Galaxy and Friendship blades, and a couple of other brands) were all specified to weigh 21 kg. Rubbers 12 kg. There was no exception. I did check quite a few items, but not enough to claim I did an extensive check.

As I mentioned in my previous post, I was joking (mostly). Nobody would believe those figures to be representative.
However, if they use that for calculating shipping cost toward consumer, they are going to make a nice profit...

I checked it, and this is a copy-paste from one of the blades:

Galaxy Venus-14 Table Tennis Blade [Comments(0)|Leave your Comment]
Item#:11121212210705
Score:35 (Score change Discount Voucher)
Weight:.21 kg.


See, it is .21kg? It just doesn't have a zero in front of the decimal point. Seems clear to me.

Same with the rubbers, for example:

Galaxy Apollo 2 Pips-In Table Tennis Rubber [Comments(0)|Leave your Comment]
Item#:11120818472742
Score:12 (Score change Discount Voucher)
Weight:.12 kg.


I don't see the problem. I guess you were just too smart to look closely.

It's OK Hookshot. You do not need to worry about such small details when you are the one holding the .44 Magnum pointed downrange...

How come some people have the name of their blade and rubbers under their post? How do you do that?
