Anecdotally eBay.com is as full of Chinese[correct spelling] bleep as well.

And buying from America has its own pitfalls. Like currency conversion fees and the GSP.

If you buy the sort of stuff that Chinese sellers supply, you're probably better off buying from a real shop. Where your Chinese junk will come with a warranty, if applicable.

Hint: Don't buy anything from Apple; all their stuff is made in China these days.
