Yes but if you don't buy a 2nd scooter then you have to find parts and stuff
And if a Chinese product has the same kind of quality assurance and customer service as an American product, the price will be similar too
Discussion
No it won't be similar, because the bulk of the cost is in the manufacturing not the service. Apple produces in China for a reason, ya know, they're not stupid.
Cost isn't price
The market rarely offers customers in the US a Chinese option that takes advantage of cheaper manufacturing there while also offering similar quality assurance, return policies, etc.
This also sets up for tariffs to be really damaging, the Chinese advantage is kinda ruined for Americans with tariffs
iPhones are your Chinese option, where is the problem.
Here's another Chinese option https://www.byd.com/us
If you buy one in the USA, you'll get USA service.
If the quality and warranty coverage are similar to a Toyota, the price will be similar to a Toyota for a customer in the US
No they're much cheaper.
And buying one guarantees every Toyota dealership will fix any issues for a certain number of miles?
Or BYD have dealerships all over the country next to all the Toyota dealerships and I just haven't noticed?
No, they're cheaper because you need to buy 2 to get the utility expectation closer to a Toyota
If you buy an iPhone from China in the US you won't have the same quality assurance, return policies, etc. as if you bought at an Apple Store in America unless you pay at least around the price you'd pay at an Apple Store in America
Yes the iPhone from you Apple store is your Chinese option. Made in China, serviced in the US.
No, the Apple store in the US is the least Chinese option for buying an iPhone
A more Chinese option would be an Apple iPhone bought from a Chinese retailer and shipped from China
The most Chinese option would be a phone that's called an "iPhone" and shipped from China but having nothing to do with the US-headquartered Apple Inc.
