I think the price in the USA is due to a European mfr->distributor->retailer->customer markup chain which probably close to triples the wholesale price. If I ever get a pair, I think I may reach out to Mapleshade and see what they would charge for a comparable set of stands.
I just spent some time browsing the Mapleshade website and from what I can tell, their stands are very bulky and seem to be totally different from the TonTrager design philosophy.
