... that said, several thousand tons of cheap Chinese rubbish is now in UK landfill, powertools that last a week or a month at best, copies (often illegal) of Japanese utility engines and contractor eqpt etc.
The Chinese don't sell them in UK do they? UK shops etc sell them. The Chinese produce to the buyers spec for the buyers price, the Chinese factories and the Chinese products are often audited by the buyers or the appointed agents of the buyers.

So go figure who is at fault over the technical specifications and product quality.

And trust me - buying & selling from / to China has been my living for many years; the buyers are at least half of the problem.
