>>>*When I take a look at the government's trade imbalance I think there is a Chinese knockoff on EVERYTHING!

Let's face it, there are some items coming in from China that are perfectly good products. I would much prefer to see Americans making products but some items there is now no other source.

The corporate heads can count, 6 bucks from China or 20 bucks from the USA, guess who makes the part?

I can't fix that by myself, so even at wholesale I see competition clipping my prices by 20-30% and more.

Way it is.

What burns me up is when the product ISN'T good, and it's being sold anyway. We went through THREE staple guns from ACE, I asked them why the he** are they selling these things, they don't WORK!!

All they did was look at me.

*Then like when I go to clip my dang toenails, and the handle on the clippers bend before the nail will clip?

Just great, they barely make a dent. I threw a fit at Walmart, NONE of them that they had would work at ALL!

I am not real sure I can go back there.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />...

He** with it, in the trash can with those and I go grab my Stanley knife??

Yep. Blades made in China.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" />...*EB
