I have been sourcing parts overseas since the 70's and you are right it always comes down to money. Profit margins always interfere with quality. I can build an exact replica of any golf club manufactured today with the same components. I can also build and exact replica with sub standard materials with the same look. Higher profit margins less quality.
I don't discount the complications in building this product but to ask your customer to fix what you should have already done is a sham. Who wouldn't spend a little more on a part "Guaranteed To Fit".

So if the mold isn't right, the pours will be bad. The final say on where it will be cast at, ALWAYS COMES DOWN TO MONEY! But it is the Responsibility of who ever had a product made, to make sure the item is made right, before ther put out for sale, not just to recoup your losses on the flawed batch. What would you say, these are made with flaws, but they are good enough for you, you can always wait for the next batch, and buy a good one at the same price. I wonder who would except a flawed bearing from me! Should I say, better luck next time!
