Seems they like a lot of the quality American made clothing and various furniture. Stuff like that, but I'd say any well known American brand of "anything" would likely do well over there in the right groups.

I think it's the typical "grass is always greener in the other yard" kinda thing. They live in China and can get all the "cheap" crap they want. So many want the real stuff.
