If you buy cheap overseas, expect cheap, and if it ends up being better than cheap, count your blessings. If the quality is poor, then that's why it didn't cost much.
I have been buying from Harbor Freight for over 20 years. In the beginning, it was definitely buyer beware. Now, 20 years later, the stuff still comes from China, you still have to read the reviews and know what "not to buy." But they do offer some very nice items at incredible prices. Their $99 (now about $125) OHV Predator engine is one of the best small engines I have ever purchased. And the Milwaukee look-alike portable power band/hack saw is another $99 dream.
But if you want a $99 tool to perform and last like the $400 original, and it doesn't, ........ take a look in the mirror, ......not at the tool. I still get burned every now and then, but that was the choice I made.
No offense meant.
