“Amazon is full of Chinese crap!”
Well yeah dude, when you buy from the resellers selling a $10 item for $100 you’re obviously not gonna get $100 of value.
Imagine moving all your manufacturing to China and then complaining that all your stuff is made in China
“They were supposed to be our cheap labor, not learn how to make things!”
That will never not be funny to me as someone who works in manufacturing. Of course they’re going to learn how to make stuff, you have to give them the blueprint so they can make it in the first place lmfao. Another one that is still pervasive is the idea that Chinese steel is still inferior to American steel. Bud China makes so much of the world’s steel you would have to be dog shit stupid to believe we don’t have tons of bridges and buildings made out if it.
Last I checked, stuff on Amazon is about $10 more expensive than the same thing on Ali. Something that costs $1 becomes $11, something that costs $60 becomes $70.
Same is true here in the states. There’s some horror stories about temu w theft of cc numbers and stuff but it’s hard to tell if that’s real or propaganda.
Once people catch on though amazon is kinda fucked.
OOO OOO TEMU OOO OOO TEMU
Anything small is cheaper on aliexpress. Large heavy items, shipping will be high, so you can probably buy large/heavy items cheaper locally, since they will order in bulk. I bought a Lenova tablet off aliexpress, that was over $100 cheaper than buying the same model/specs off bestbuy.
