People associate China with low quality stuff. But I tell ya... The best quality stuff I have, I bought in China or somewhere else in East Asia (mostly China). And the worst quality stuff, I bought in America - at 4x the price.

This isn't meant to be an "America sucks" note. Its just what I'm observing right now.

Curious to hear what kind of products specifically

Clothes, bags, phone. Its the clothes that are really noticeable.

That's interesting. I bought a Yamaha drum kit with birch shells that was made in China a few years ago... excellent sound, solid build. They've definitely improved their quality control over the last decade.

Yeah, and I remember arguing that China wouldn't be able to climb the quality ladder (or whatever the snooty term being used was), and I think I was wrong.
