I do agree many "higher brands" items are made in China now, including Tourbillon watches, and some "Suen G" funitures ...
However, the reason why they are made in China, because of the COST .. not because they are better.
Some of my friends are in the TOYS business, and yes, almost 90% Japanese brands toys are made in China, not Made in Japan anymore, (or thailand etc) but not because made in China toys are better then made in Japan Toys, just because they are cheaper, and there are way more people to do it.
I use Made in China "speakers" as well, components/units from Danmark, crossover/wiring from USA, and the wood cabin, of course from China, and the assembled in China..... so instead of $7K for same speakers, with a BRITISH BRAND logo on it, it only costs $2K. (even a pair of Made in UK/Danmark speaker, their sound cabins are mostly from China anyway)
Again, we know most of the products we are using now, are made in CHINA, but we have no choice. ( or say, we are not rich enough to have the choice )
Just my 2 cents. |
