china-nike-tragedy.jpg

As this tragic montage shows, buying online can have unfortunate consequences, particularly when China is involved.

If he really knew the shoes were being shipped from China, perhaps he should have thought better of it?

    Also spray Lysol inside them after you wear them each night so you kill the sweat, moisture, and bacteria that causes them to rot (from the inside) quicker.

    You could start by not buying things that were made in China. Remember to check the origins of every single thing you purchase in the future. In fact look through all your possessions and chuck everything that was made in China since they will fall apart sooner or later.

    Everything you can identify in everyday scales will fall apart eventually. What sort of time scale do you have in mind?

    I also fail to see how condemning the Chinese to indefinite poverty will make anything better. If anything growing the Chinese middle class so that they can afford to have high standards to subject their domestic industries to would make more sense.

    erm...

    I was making a point actually. If the dude actually did take a look at all his possessions, he would realise how dumb his comments were about China not exporting shit.

    I mean seriously all those people who wants to condemn made in China goods should look at things they buy carefully. Probably 70% of their stuff comes from China, legit or not. If they are cheap ass enough to buy rip-off, they can't complain about quality.

    Sure there are a lot of questionable rip-off goods from China, but most of the proper licensed goods are also made in China. It is kind of strange to see comments about "China quality"... Do people even know where their products come from? I am pretty sure most people look at the "Made in... " tag. Isn't that like the most basic common knowledge?

    How to make a Dragon tatoo on your back;

    1. Buy a China-made t-shirt w/ a Dragon pic on the back.
    2. Wear it backwards. CAUTION:Don't rub lotion on your back.
    3. Lie yourself flat on the floor for 2 minutes.
    4. Strip off the clothes. The tatoo is now patched.
    5. Don't bathe or else the soap and water will wash it away.

    Buying shoes online? I never thought there was someone as stupid as a friend of mine, who does the same. As the most important clothing at all, you have to try it.

    There are good quality products in China, believe me, but any american mark in china is a trap!
    IF YOU BUY CHINESE, BUY CHINESE MARKS.

    I wear only Li-Ning shoes, and they're really good made and looks great, better than Nike in my opinion.

    Epic.
    We get a lot of fake clothing from China here in Czech Rep. It's okay as long as there's quality - the main purpose is to have clothes to wear, not to have a company's logo on it. With trousers, it's usually okay.
    But shoes are a problem - if the shoe is bad quality, it will cripple your foot and that will affect your whole body, because you stand on it, it will throw off your balance and blah blah... it's just bad.

    Just remember that made in japan was just as negative in the USA 30 years ago that made in china is today.
    the difference lays in that japan make quality products today and china does not. Japaneses cars out weight American cars 9:1 were I live now. Must all appliances in my home are either made in japan or Korea. Only thing that's good about made in china is that when it does died, it's so damn cheap to replace.

    There are two types of China quality:

    1. Stuff made in China under Western supervision according to ISO standards

    2. True China Quality indigenously made knock-offs

    There is nothing necessarily wrong with stuff made in China as long as the whole process is closely supervised. Of course, without supervision you will end up with a Luis Futon purse full of lead-based fake eggs that attack small children and pets.

    Key take away here - don't order fake Nike shoes direct from China on the Internet and expect them to actually be good shoes.

    At least the mystery China shoe defect only labeled his foot. My buddy Jose P. bought a pair that had all these little hairs on them. He tried to burn the hairs off with a lighter when he was on the plane. Now he is in prison. I blame China. True story.

    Your friend Jose P. was a dumbass. You forgot the third type of China quality. The type where both the manufacturer and the distributor are based in China. Just order direct from the official distributor and you can never go wrong

    I think McThinkerton was making a terrorist joke about Jose Paedilla - the shoe bomber.

    At http://www.ProductFrom.com one can check the origin of products. For now there are informations about 600 items. Let's hope that it will increase soon.

    This is one of the main reasons Ebay bombed over here. Ebay is full of scammers selling crappy bootlegs. All Japanese people want original or they just won't buy it. Yahoo Auctions is harder to navigate and more widely used.
