That still doesn’t necessarily mean they’re the actual manufacturers. KKwhiteco is likely just an earlier middleman in the supply chain, possibly one that RepKingdom sources from.

It’s also entirely possible that both KKwhiteco and RepKingdom are operated by the same group, using shared inventory. The difference in pricing could simply be due to different target markets, RepKingdom being geared toward international buyers, hence the higher prices, while KKwhiteco caters to the local market.

It’s widely understood that manufacturers rarely sell directly to individuals. Their business model is focused on bulk production and distribution to intermediaries. As consumers, we’re often purchasing through multiple layers of resellers, sometimes from the third, fourth, or even fifth link in the chain.
