<p>Michael,</p> <p>the word quality is not existing in the Chinese language, only the word copy [swg]</p> <p>Not so long ago, I was able to talk to one of the product managers from one of the leading MRR brands in Germany. They had, and still have, big quality issues with their Chinese sub-contractors. They have resolved it by establishing their own, non-Chinese people, for QA in China. Which, of cause, adds to the cost.</p> <p>I dare say, if you´d add up all the cost of quality, you might as well move back the production to the US or Germany or .... A lot of renowned companies have already begun to do this.</p> <p>Whichever way we look at it, we will have to face rising costs in our hobby!</p>
