The Chinese ARE learning that quality is more important than price.
Agreed, the Chinese are learning that. It's the importers and middlemen of crap that have not learned it. Just have a look at all the rubbish in Bunnings, lots of it not suitable for the purpose for which it is being sold.
As I stated previously, the Chinese CAN turn out first rate world quality stuff, BUT, you pay exactly the same price as any other good quality stuff from anywhere else.
I'm too poor to buy cheap crap.
