Well, speaking anecdotally, I personally know some rather excellent East Euro mobile devs who could probably build anything (within reason) for $60k-$80k a year, and do it rather well. (Not advertising anyone's services, just mentioning the rates good devs work for around here).
They exist for sure. They are not working for the out sources because they have found someone willing to pay them what they are really worth - this might be a lot less than they could make in the US, but a lot more than they can make from the cheap outsourceers. You can find great offshore labor, but you need to hire someone who knows the country to manage those people as not everyone is great. You also need to be willing to pay the great people.
