Made in China

 

Theres a certain stigma that comes with thats logan it is thought that the products that are Made in china are knock-offs (counterfeit or fake) and while that has been true for quite some time is it really the case these days are chinese products all cheap imitations of western products maybe but the question that we should be asking is What does that mean for us consumers. Well one thing you should Know is that in todays world almost everything we import is Made in china and this alone should be enough to make you think twice before you look down on chinese products. everything from electronics Like smartphones, laptops and their accessories Like headsets and chargers to the very chlothes that  you buy are probably being produced in china and we're not talking about the poor quality stuff Like those chakana (poor quality) phones that are being sold in the streets these are high end Smartphones, Samsung and even iPhones are produced there. But still the Made in china is still something that will make a product seem less valuable than the rest.

Looking at some chinese products though you will soon realize that not all chinese products are poor quality 

If anything chinese products come in grades. theres quality grade and the other that we'll call economic grade for the less unfortunate the thing is china has a history of producing poor quality products and that has left a bad reputation for the brands that originate from china and in order to sell their products chinese companies Have been forced to rebrand their products with the names of western brands. These are the products that find their way to asia and africa where they are imported and sold by retailers one negative thing about this is that opportunist Have taken advantage of the lack of a sure way for consumers to tell the difference between An authentic product and a chinese counterfeit of the same product and are selling the counterfeits at exergerated prices when they bought their goods at cheap prices

An example below with the currently popular Jordan 1s

the best thing to do is to take advantage of the fact that chinese products are more affordable and at times equally valuable as western products and Just enjoy the best of both worlds cause labled or not It was probably Made in china
