Do you buy online from China?

Yes I do!I use Ebay a lot,since I can pay with PayPal,and I find a lot of things much cheaper than on Canadian or American sites, never mind stores!I'll give on example:I received a Kindle e-reader for my birthday,and I wanted to buy a cover for it.I checked out the stores first,and they were selling for 39.99+tax(and in Quebec taxes are 15%),So I went on ebay,and found one (the same like in the stores) for 9.99,No taxes,free shipping,So what if I had to wait 3 weeks! Also it is great for costume jewelry ,a fraction of the price.

Which website that you go to buy all these things with free shipping? Are you sure it is the same thing with retailers there? There are a lot of fake items in China. I personally do not trust doing business with China. China makes their product so cheap, the quality is questionable. Chinese people doing business is like snakes. Everything is possible, they will try to do anything to make profit. Better for me to look at the items, rather than seeing it online. If I want to buy then I can go to chinese mall here. You will know the quality, and sure what it is that you are buying. Buying online is a "no" for me from Chinese people. I won't trust whether they are sending it or not. I know that almost everything is made in China. But if buying in the stores, you know the brand. Many brands are made in China, but I trust the brand. Their quality requirement is already there. China is full of fake products.

Hi, I buy from retailers in person and online, in Australia and overseas. A lot of items come from China either way, through an online store, or through the retailer selling goods from China. :-). Anyways, today the postman brought me a package from Poland. :-) I am probably a shopaholic.

Just like here in the U.S.. you can thank big business for all that. They are the ones who hire people from other countries and they are the ones that move factories over seas so they can make a bigger profit. Look, I always look for cheap deals. I hate over spending on items that I can et cheaper some where else. But they claim that it costs more here because they have to pay people more. Thats bull. Its all about profit. Here in the U.S. they hire a lot of illegals to do the work at a fraction of the cost, but yet charge more for the product. So keep on buying where you get the best price. They need to be taught a lesson.

I like to buy most of my stuff online but mainly tools and certain electronics. However, higher end stuff is a pain because there is a chance of getting fakes like all of the fake Beats circulating (even though the fakes have better quality than the reals) it is a pain and if you're wondering, I do not/did not buy the beats, they were my friends .

I tend to buy things online a lot. And also a lot of my clothing is from china. I go to stores like yesstyle, and other stores that sell clothing at a super cheap price (although the shipping is super expensive.) I don't live in Australia so I don't know what is going on there, but the GOV. hasn't said anything about this here in the U.S. I think buying from other countries is bad for our economy, but I go wherever the prices are cheaper!

I would buy the item that I really need and not avalable in the local market here. Of course with the reasonable price and low shipping charging. I would be happy to purchase stuffs online with cheaper price

China is reputed to produce low quality products. The products are cheap but are fragile. I rather spend more for quality products than accumulating. Junks from China. When i visited Australia I wanted to buy souvenirs for people back home but couldn't find anything that are made locally. I ended buying kangaroo. Keychains made from china. I have never bought anything online yet but even if i want to buy online I make sure that the product is not from china. We have too many things made from china sold at dirt cheap prices here. My country has become a dumping ground for china made inferior goods which has given me a bad perception of china made goods. There are good ones no doubt but the middlemen spoilt the market by going for cheap stuffs for fast turnover and quick bucks.

Yeah, in China, young people often buy things online. sometimes in order to get the precise commodity especially shoes, coats and trousers, we will go to the shopping mall to try it first and remember the item NO., then type in the number online to buy the exactly the same one in a lower price, I think this is a good way to save maney and time, especially for persons like me who doesn't have time to shopping in real life.

Well... do buy China products - gadgets and clothes but not food. I don't buy online though. I buy from a retailer store. I am not from the US but from the Philippines and despite the arguments we have with China we still have their products as our options.

China products are very affordable but disposable , no durability. Sometimes i come to think , am i not wasting my money for these things ? Sometimes we must be a wise buyer , don't look at the price but look at the durability. For me Uncles Sam product is an example.

Yes i buy a few stuffs from China online and I am satisfied with what I have received so far. I also buy things online from UK. I also go for free shipping items mostly, but the problem with free shipping is that it takes a long time for you to receive items.

sometimes i will buy some goods on the internet . buy online from china is cheap . and save time , but i prefer to shopping with my best friends forever onthe weekends . thai is very great thank you for you sharing this discussion, my lovely friend wish you happy every day

I am from China and I do a lot of online shopping from our shopping sites. The prices may vary from products to products, some cheap and some expensive, depending on its quality. For those who desire to buy cheap things, the quality is different. Usually you get what you pay. It all depends on one's shopping level on price. It is a pleasure to do online shopping. It is convenient and fast. Enjoy online shopping.

We are very careful not to buy ANYTHING that originates in China. Chinese products are always inferior, and Chinese food products are often tainted with poisonous additives. Its becoming difficult to get fish that are not raised in polluted Chinese lakes and rivers,because there are few laws in China which prohibit poisonous chemical additives in the fish diet. We are having trouble finding good solar electric batteries for our stock fences because the Chinese can make them cheaper (and therefore inferior) than anyone else. Chinese have killed their own babys with polluted baby food. Anyone who uses Chinese products or food, are endangering their own livelihood. For your own sake buy American!

I buy all the big, heavy, blokey, industrial stuff from China. It's a different story in the USA, but down here, no-one manufactures anything at all anymore. I tried every single state. We have huge copper mines, but no one bothers to refine the stuff here & why should they when we can ship ore off to China, they do everything for a fraction of our wages & ship it back for much cheaper than we can make the stuff. My last order was for copper mesh, the best grade & the smallest quantity for the best price. I juggled the deals of over a dozen manufacturers & ran them all up against each other's offers. I got a great deal. I'd really love to support local industry, but it's not even possible in this copy-cat climate. Retailers here can't reduce prices without cutting more jobs. Haven't we seen enough cuts & closures already? I reckon it's back to being a nation of dole bludgers again!

China goods is very cheaper than other countries.Because of china have a lot of cheap labors.Many Chinese cheap products are sold all over the world.
