The block's base looks like it's been machined flat with a fly-cutter, and then electroplated with copper for a nice shiny finish, mostly covering the fly-cut machine marks, but still leaving that tell-tale ripple effect that fly-cut machining has.
In short - a very cheap method to achieve a nice "mirror" finish - but not exactly flat.

They're upset about my description of the quality of the base, and my opinion on the type of machining that would have produced such.
I'll post some pictures, which I wasn't going to do.
I will also edit the above statement to strongly reflect that it was just my personal assessment of how the base was machined.
