Say I need an illustration. I go to a filippino artist who does it for 50.00 and its awesome. Gary in Nebraska wants 500.00 for the same job. Where does "quality" fit into the equation? Quality is a given. The buyer is paying for items built to spec. Thats it.
All I know is that majority of products made in china do not last as long as their american counterparts 20 years ago. things are being made cheaper while wanting more for the product. if quality is so closely monitored by the bobs of the world then why are there so many recalls involving chinese made products?
