Raybestos Rotors made in china

I needed the front rotors for my truck, and they have 2 models. One is 39 and the other is 49 each. The guy said the difference is that the expensive one is made in USA or Canada. the cheaper one is made in china or other countries. I got these rotors before and they were made in Canada, top of Raybestos, PG Plus VSM. When I received my rotors, the labels show made in china. I spoke to them and they have no idea why these were made in china. But from looking at them, on the outter hub, it is power coated black, and they said those are the right rotors, the cheap ones are not being coated like that. These Robestos are labeled Advanced Technology, they look nice. I tried to get the best rotor from Raybestos to avoid being made in china, and they come made in china.

Anyone got these made in china too?

That's strange, I got mine about a month ago and they were made in Canada . I work at Kragen and I've never seen any of the premium Raybestos rotors marked "Made In China". Occasionally, the cheap rotors are marked "Made in USA/Canada" but never the other way around. I'm gonna check a few at work tomorrow to be sure.
