Buying from China

What do you think the impact will be in buying gear from China in the near future. Will the parts supply chain be depleted. Will part s other then those specify be substituted.? Will wait times for electrics will be extended. I can get pretty paranoid about it. Interested in the options of those with better insights. Should I wait awhile until things settle down befor I place my next order? I imagine things are going to be tough for the small hi end audio manufacturer.

Don’t know what the CCP stands for. Don’t know what melody is.  I am trying to relax, but have placed an order for expensive gear for delivery months from now, and am thinking it’s not a smart time to be doing this.

You can place an order with any company and get stiffed, whether they are overseas or not.  Just try to keep in touch with the seller and hope for the best.  I hear no stories about people placing orders for Chinese audio and then not getting it, if that helps at all.  But if it really bothers you, perhaps you would be better off cancelling the order and buying something from a local retailer or Music Direct?

Getting “stiffed” has never been my concern.

My understanding is that the Chinese biologic weapons laboratory has figured out how to implant corona virus in speaker cones. 
Don't be sick. Buy American.
