I guess the question us consumers ask, is how can chinese sell product for 1/6th the price we can buy locally?

buy buying the metal from the dental department at Aushwitz to make your rod ends

It had to be done. Not sure if it was Oveur or Unger Dunn.

Was that the Special Olympics?

Judging by the running you could well be right.

I enjoyed watching the clip of the squirrel that took over the baseball game. Reckon if he'd been in the hurdle video he'd have won it.

I don't know why you lot are bitching about the chinese bringing in products that keep the "known brands" @ least a little bit honest. Without their influence how much do you think the prices would have risen on consumer items if they wern't making them & marketing them @ a more realistic price ??

Remember when a good watch was a swiss one? The cost of a good one was up to a months wages. Now you can get a Chinese one for a few dollars.

Wern't GN250's made in china for quite a while before anyone figured out that someone had moved the production from Japan??

I had a zongshen 200 a few years ago, it was fine for the intended pourpose & went well right up until it was involved in a crash that wrote it off. It's cost was nearly half that of a japanese equivilent !

The problem is a whole lot more sinister than that.

There are countless Chinese companies making counterfeit copies of reputable brands (right down to using the identical branding) while using inferior materials.

How would you feel if you bought a chainsaw you assumed to be a genuine Stihl and later found that it was a vastly inferior counterfeit?
