I've also noticed that they are everywhere on Ebay. Seems to me like half of what I buy on Ebay these days comes from Hong Kong.

Yea, the net created a
lot of jobs abroad. Mom and pop companies and individuals who otherwise never have access to the western markets, now have full access to anyone in the world with a computer. I know a girl here who sells clothes and small items she buys at local markets to Europe and the USA via Ebay and Facebook of all places, and makes shit loads of money.
I saw something on TV last week about a shop in China selling 1000+ purses
A DAY on their online store, selling both to the Chinese and western markets. And that should be a good hint, if you can find something to sell to the Chinese, and they want it, you're going to cash in big time.
