After Buying Yet Another Piece Of Junk JUNK Here On Ebay, I Decided To Make This List. Hopefully This List Can Help Others Who Are Looking To Buy Quality, While Avoiding The Endless Sea Of Junk.
I have ALWAYS hated the idea of buying poorly made Chinese junk, but it
seems like everything is now this way. All of use Customers
most-of-the-time end up with either 2 options. 1# We Can buy
Name-Brand, Poorly Made Chinese Junk. Or we can buy No-Name, Poorly
Made Chinese Junk. Me Personally I always try to buy American made; or
at the very least a product Designed/Constructed from a place where I
have a good idea about the quality (Canada, Europe, Japan, ect). But
with Electronics, this isn't really possible anymore; so like others; I
have
been forced to settle for FAR less quality. Through this process though
I have spotted the telltale signs of "JUNK". I will continue to update
this list, but for now these are the basics.
So Here Are Some Tricks For Finding Out If The Item You Purchase Is Going To Be JUNK.
1. If The Item Has (ANY) Chinese Or Taiwanese Writing On The Device;
Then Odds Are The Device Won't Last More Then A Month. These Are
Devices That DON'T Have To Meet With Any Of The USA Quality
Regulations. These Devices Can Be Made By A Company That Starts-up,
Mass-Produces A Lot Of Junk In A Very Short Amount Of Time; Then They
Move On To Making Something Else. So If You See ANY Chinese Or
Taiwanese Writing, Then DON'T Buy It! Even If It Is Mixed With English.
2. If The Product Manual Has A Lot Of Misspelling's & Grammatical
Errors In It; Then Odds Are The Device Is JUNK. When A (REAL-DEAL)
Company Contracts With A Chinese Company To Mass-Produce Something,
They Really Try Their Best To Make Sure Everything Is Correct; Even
When It Comes To The Product Manuals. But When Something Is Just
Designed & Mass-Produced In The Hopes Of Making Some Quick Cash;
Then There Is No Standard To Follow. Just Think About it. If A Company
Can't Even Take The Time To Make Sure The Written Directions Have Been
Translated Correctly; Do You Honestly Think They Care How Well The
Device Works? NO! Because This Week They Will Mass-Produce MP3 Players,
Then Next Week They Will Mass-Produce Something Else. What Do They Care
If The Device Fails? They Can Just Change There Name And Move On To
Making Something Else.
3. Brand-Name's Don't Always Mean Quality. Sanyo And Audiovox Are Some
Examples Of Companies That Will Buy Junk From Some Two-Bit
Manufacturers; Then Re-Sell It Using Their Brand-Name. And The
Companies That Manufacturer This Junk; Also Sell These Same Devices To
Other Generic-Brand Companies. So You May Spend $50 More On Lets Say An
Audiovox Stereo; Not Knowing That The Stereo Is Being Sold By Some
Unknown Company For Less. You Can Sometimes Spot This By Reading The
Label On The Back Of The Device. It Would Say Something To The Effect
Of (Manufactured By So-And-So. Distributed By Audiovox.)
4. Try Your Best To Make Sure You Don't Buy Knock-Off's. Ebay Is
Saturated With Knock-Off's! Knock-Off's Are Products That "Look" Like
The Original Devices, Being Sold From Major Companies, But They ARE
NOT. They Are Just "FAKES". One Way To Spot These Knock-Off's Would Be
If It Is Missing Certain Markings, Or Design Details. If You See For
Example A Sony DVD Player Being Sold On Ebay, And The Photo Looks
Different Then The Photo Seen On Sony's Homepage; Then It Could Be A
Knock-Off. The Other Way Is If The Item Is Being Shipped Directly From
China; Then Just Consider It A Knock-Off. A Lot Of Knock-Off's Look So
Much Like OEM That It Can Be Impossible For A Customer To Tell The
Difference. Since China is The Headquarters Of Knock-Off's, Then Buying
A Name-Brand ANYTHING Directly From China Means You Run A Giant Risk Of
The Device Being A FAKE. Remember, With Knock-Off's You Not Only Waste
Your Money, But You End Up With Something That Can Literary Blow-Up
And/Or Catch Fire! The Chinese Government Really Hasn't Cared About
Knock-Off's, Just As Long As Their Citizens Are Employed In Some Way.
So These Devices Are NOT Correctly Rated For Safety By The USA, Because
They Are Knock-Off's. And The Chinese Government Turns A Blind-Eye. So
Knock-Off's Can Be Extremely Dangerous!
