This is to be expected for a couple of reasons.  People earn more and living standards are generally increasing, at least in cities. This increases costs of production. Also, prices will increase a lot if the Chinese government allows their currency to float a bit more.  Back in 2007, $1 (USD) was worth about 8 RMB.  Now the Chinese government has allowed it to come down to somewhere in the neighborhood of 6 RMB, which is still quite artificially high.  It keeps the prices of their products low on the world market, and it allows visitors to China to feel insanely rich with the purchasing power they command, but it probably won't stay that way forever.  

It is good that this thread is dug out again.  

Draw a contour on the sponge with a felt Tip Pen, a big finger-sized pen.

Be happy.

For those like myself who cut with a knife, maybe we can find a thick non-sticky tape of some sort. ==================== That electric cutting machine is subjected to break-down, and you will need to send it to the garbage dump. I use a pair of titanium scissors. (I will never buy that cutting machine.) You can get them in Walmart. A package of 3 pairs titanium scissors doesn't cost much.

The most professional way to do this is 

A) Glue as normal
B) Cut rubber to blade size

You also place a spacer on the blade so that when you cut the rubber it will have extra soace on the edge.

Just use several layers of tape around the blade prior to cutting. It needn't be official table tennis edge tape; any tape with some thickness and a smooth surface to cut against works fine. Then place blade on a cutting board and cut with a single edge razor pressed against the tape while held vertically. Make several passes with the blade, i.e. don't try to cut through the entire sponge+topsheet in a single pass!

     SOME OVTCHAROV's RIDDLE .....
Do ask Ovtcharov Dimitry how is he able to trim his rubber this way. 4 mm rubber
hanging out all along the blade margin. Some Riddle of the Sphinx, indeed .

    

Riddle of the Sphinx (Knowledge is akin gold coinages. The more you know the better fortune you possess).

It is sayed the riddle being asked was as follows:

"Which creature has one voice and yet becomes four-footed and two-footed and three-footed?" Sphinks then strangled and devoured anyone who could not answer. Greece's king Oedipus did solved the riddle by answering:     -- ega dlo ni kcits gniklaw a sesu neht dna ,tluda na sa teef owt no sklaw neht ,ybab a sa sruof lla no slwarc ohw—naM" By some accounts, there was a second riddle: "There are two sisters: one gives birth to the other and she, in turn, gives birth to the first. Who are the two sisters?" -- The answer is ʇɥƃıu рuɐ ʎɐр
