    Buy local when you can, if you have to order a chinese made products (most are these days) buy from Aliexpress, you save a ton of money not paying amazon markup or a 3rd party Chinese seller running business on Amazon.

        If you have some electronics knowledge I find that garbage much easier to repair. They’re usually assembled with just screws and made of mostly plastic. Plus, Ali express is one of the last places you can buy a TV that’s just a god damn TV.

        I totally agree with that, the issue these days is even the good products are chinese made. And things like computer parts; you don’t have an western part manufacturer. An example Dell adapter cable on Amazon $24, exact product direct from China $3 free shipping

        There’s quite a few well made Chinese products nowadays, especially in certain niche tech hobbies.
