Squier VM Jazz vs Fender Jaguar

Hi allmighty low-frequency people ;)

I was at my local music store today wanting to test out a fretless VM jazz. In the store, my eyes got turned on by a Fender Jaguar which actually was cheaper than the regular non-fretless Squier VM.

Do you guys know if there is something fishy going on with these entry level Fender Jaguar basses since it acually is cheaper than the best Squiers?

I didn't have time to test them, something I of course will do if I end up buying anything.
But if you could choose between a Squier Jazz and Fender Jaguar, what would you grab? Are the higher level Squiers potentially better?
