Which is why it makes no sense to say "Chinese" to mean low quality


The Chinese will make a part exactly as good as you pay them to make it.


I'm having a hard time trying to find a country with a reputation of consistently underpricing their electronics parts.

Perhaps one would do that to get its name on the map as a newcomer, but soon enough investments need to be repaid and the prices would naturally raise up to match the increase in reputation and pad the margins.


Hence my specifying knock off. 3rd party repair shops aren't buying their parts from Belgium or Fiji
