If you are conversant in der Kraut-talk, perhaps the following might provide
some insight:

Then again, it could have all the veracity of any other internet
advertisement.  At one point during this saga of fluff, Suzie uses the
English phrase, "Made in Germany".  I'll have to send the febi copywriters
the junk febi bearings I bought which were made in Spain.  It may simply be
that febi does not have the gonads to sell their Spanish-made junk to a
German.
