Why are the Jib's 30 bucks more than the Scratch's, aren't they the same binding?

sometimes Ive seen the same binding vary in price depending on whether or not it has Look or Rossignol on it.

Usually the Look bindings, will the exact same, cost a bit more money.  At least this is my experience. 

You pay for the name for sure.

i was looking at these two as well and im not 100% sure on this but i dont think the scratches have the little 3mm shock absorber pads that the jibs do. someone correct me if im wrong but i havent seen anything mentioned about them in any description of the scratch 120's on any website. that and the brand name/ color scheme are all i can think of that would make the prices different.

theyre both composite, but the only real difference aside from graphics is the shock pad. not really the most sensible reason though, the differences are null

Same binding, 50 dollar price difference
