chinese counterfeitng

Unfortunately, a significant number of products manufactured in China are poor in quality...depends on the industry. If it is a faked product , there should be greater concern over the quality as fakes are typically designed to mimic appearance...not performance. Hence, you should purchase from a reputable dealer. Don’t be afraid to ask for a discount. If you don’t ask...you don’t get! And, if the price seems to good to be true...it most likely is!

Having traveled to China many times relative to manufacturing, you do need the stay on top of quality more so than in Korea and other countries. It is somewhat country specific as you don’t make quality product overnight. It took Japan many years to reach their high level of quality! I would put most Korean branded products well ahead of Chinese products. Given time, China will no doubt reach the quality level of South Korea as their population become more educated. Yes, there are quality products coming out of China but the question centered on fake products.
