I have other issues with China, but I understand what you are saying.ghcoe wrote:That is what I am saying. You have to do the research. Sometimes it is not that easy because of all the generic bashing going on. What you are showing is hard proof of sub par. When I see bashing and no evidence then I take it as a grain of salt.
China has some of the newest and best manufacturing machinery in the world. The problem is that Americans don't want good stuff they want cheap stuff. So the good stuff goes to other places and the cheap stuff comes here and breaks. Then we say "its cheap Chinese stuff!". Well.....Yes! It is cheap Chinese stuff. You can get good Chinese stuff, you just have to look for it. It will cost more than the cheap stuff we are use to, but it will still be quite a bit cheaper than mainstream products. Sometimes it is the same thing as the mainstream products just there is no middle man.

On the other hand, I kind of like buying Taiwanese stuff.
