Q: Why do the Chinese randomly export crap and keep quality?

I've started to notice that in general, Chinese clothing and a few other random goods types are of WAY HIGHER QUALITY than what we buy abroad that comes out of China.

What gives? Why, in such a disposable commodity society, are my jackets and socks so nice but I have to send home to get my family to send me a Chinese made umbrella that will survive more than a week?

Same anywhere. Buy wine in a major wine-producing country, and it will be twice as good at a fraction of the price (compared to buying the same label in Canada). Likewise, imported Brazilian coffee here in China is often quite poor, but more expensive than it would be in Brazil. Don't know why, but it seems to be universal.

well i think it is not the case, it is totaly depending on buyer or importer for which goods & Grade he is paying for ?
China has A grade, B grade and C grade goods.

well i am from uk and everything what i am buying from the high streets shops of england are all good quality because our wholeseller or importer is buying A grade stuff from China and english consumer is also aware of quality stuff and government is also having checks and balance on importer quality.

yes we have poor quality as well in uk but u cant dispaly that stuff on the high street shops.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
