Very cheap indeed.
The difference is huge:
1) Input Wattage: Mine 880W, the one shown is 600W.
2) Throw distance: Mine 21mm, the one shown I believe is 8mm (it is not state in the web). (so mine is large throw machine like the Rupes Bigfoot LHR21, whereas the one you show is traditional DA).
3) ergonomics: Mine is try to mimic the rotary design (it is a Rupes + Flex combine), so it is longer in length. Your is shorter. No verdict here because ergonomics is personal preference.
4) Backing plate attachment menthod: Mine uses allen key with a spline feature on the backing plate head, so I do not need to use a wrench. Yours need to use a wrench to hold on the bearing nut otherwise it will never get tighten, wrench is usually come together with the package.
5) Backing plate choice: As mentioned above, I will be restricted to use the backing plate with the spline feature, so I basically can only use the two backing plates shown in my post only. I will have to buy from Maxshine for a replacement. Although I am curious also whether Rupes backing plate will fit on my machine. Yours is like universal, any common traditional DA backing plate choice can be used. So you will have less problem when come to re-stock.
Basically it is two different category of DA machine. Mine is large throw, the one shown by you is traditional DA.
I have one traditional DA myself too. Both have a place in my work, none replace the other.
The only thing I am concern with your machine is:
1) You do not have a chance to test it yourself. So you will never know the quality until it is shipped which by that time might be too late. Taobao electrical items always got risk, TianMao will be more reliable. Try search for same product from TianMao instead. Both Taobao and TianMao, like Aliexpress, all belong to Alibaba, same China man boss. Provided you have friend in China who can test for you upon receive the item, then the risk is lower because there is a policy of return given by Taobao. You can still do the return even when you are in Malaysia but the courier cost might not justify the action.
2) Because you didn't test it yourself or hear no other user feedback on forum before, you never know whether the motor will bog down under pressure or not. Forum member here who purchased China made rotary before experience this problem on certain cheap model. If it does bog down under pressure then it is pretty much useless. But again you will never know until you test it yourself or hear from previous user.
3) It is really cheap, too cheap to be good to trust but I cannot assert it is a bad product. The reason I say it is hard to believe because there is another identical machine carried by Aikka Malaysia:
Aikka DA Polisherbut it is selling at RM600+. Almost twice the price. Well we never know whether it is due to Aikka trying to make a huge profit margin or it is indeed two different grade of quality. I will suggest you email Aikka, find out which branch has a ready stock, go there and try it out yourself.
That is all I can feedback to you at the moment from the info you provide. I wish you find your machine soon.
Thank you sir, very detailed and articulated explanation.
Hoping to see the user experience review of your new DA.
