Math is universal.
It was the middle of the night, on a weekend. You may not receive an answer until Monday morning, China time (likely in the wee hours for most of the forum members, not counting the ones in Australia and suchlike).

All of our products are made from Chinese factories and all costs are the same during this period.
Because we need to send the goods to different warehouses, the cost of sea transportation will vary from country to country.
The cost of the warehouse we lease in each country is also different.
Of course, these costs will be spread equally over the cost of each piece of goods, which will not cause the price difference of TS600 to be greater than that of TS1000.
The reason for this is that the express delivery is different in each country. For example, we usually use UPS or FedEx in the United States, while we use DHL in the United Kingdom.
The charge standard of the two express delivery companies is different.
Generally speaking, UPS charges according to the weight of the goods, and they will give us a freight quotation for different weight ranges. Compared with TS1000, TS600 happens to have a lower price in their freight quotation, but in the DHL quotation, the freight of TS600 is not much different from that of TS1000.
As you can see, the prices on our website are based on the US market prices, which leads to the reason why the TS600 cost differential as you can see is higher than the TS1000.

I attended a whole day meeting on Saturday. I logged in 420mag during the break, so I didn't have much time to type a lot of words to explain.Sorry for the misunderstanding

That still doesn't make sense.
If I order from mars hydro UK directly, the ts600 costs £68 pounds delivered to my door, if I order from here (which I was trying to support the site) then a ts600 costs me £88. That's a £20 difference.
Now, is that a different company then you, offering better prices on your lights?
Or am I bring charged an extra £20 here to subsidise your American market?

£20 = $27.7 American. (Current exchange)

In the first response @Mars Hydro states the price difference is not down to freight charges but market comparisons. Then in the second response @Mars Hydro states the price difference is due to freight charges.
Then @Mars Hydro go on to claim
Then @Mars Hydro go on to claim
But put nearly double the extra charge on the smaller ts600 than the larger ts1000.
So if you order from this site, you order from an American warehouse?
Even if you live in the UK? Awesome trying to support the site, but there is a discrepancy somewhere.
If it saved me $27.77 dollars I would order directly. That's weird...

Good evening pp.
That's what I was thinking, but I purchased a ts1000 from here about 3/4 months ago and it came from a UK warehouse in dunstable north England. I'm looking at the box now.
So it would seem,either mars hydro uk is a seperate company from the one here, or I'm being charged an extra £20 to send an email of purchase confirmation from this site/rep.
The obvious course of action for me is to go through the UK vendor, I just wanted to give a heads up to UK customers here at 420 about the discrepancy.
Spot on and good looking out for the fellow consumer and grower.
Most importantly, I am positive someone will take this info and fix something somewhere.

Yeah, mars hydro uk will most probably raise their price by £20 to match....I'd better get in there quick and order one before they do...

May I know where did you see the TS600 sold for 68 pounds?
I checked our UK website and the price is £79.99. Our website sells it for 102.99 US dollars. Based on the current exchange rate, it's £75.77.
