Isn't it trademark infringement either way? If you tried this with the apple logo and your business was us based you'd be sued out of existence.

I speculate that this logo is mostly used for "cheap crap" where they stamp any random logo you want.
Also if you sell the "cheap crap" to some country outside of EU, you can still slap the nice CE logo there.
And since when shady Chinese companies care about copyrights anyway.

I think part of the puzzle is why they would cheat by stamping a logo that is almost right but not quite. Is it that their level of honesty such that they wouldn't cheat regulations but would cheat a trademark? Maybe they themselves can't tell which logo is the correct one so they just stamp anything?

Maybe it's a lie that they tell themselves so they can sleep better at night. It's not unlike how "sovereign citizens" believe in various flawed legal arguments to justify how they don't have to pay taxes.
