Inner-sting, to be sure.

I try very hard to eschew anything "Chinese-made" as often as possible.

The situation with such stuff is very much akin to the problem with 
Japanese-made stuff just prior to WWII: they sent us that junk because they 
thought we wanted it.

We don't: the sellers here do because they make more money on it.

It is all crap.
