I hate how every retailer is starting to turn their online stores into these Chinese marketplaces. Best Buy, The Bay, Walmart, the list goes on. It's just endless junk being peddled everywhere now in pursuit of endless profits. I feel bad for genuine quality manufacturers who just can't (and aren't willing to) compete because everyone is just buying throwaway garbage that ends up in the landfills in record time versus stuff with some semblance of quality.

As a guitarist, for example, never in a million years would I have found Chinese junk products when I played in bands less than 10 years ago. It's was all brand name music gear from well known companies or small shops run by fellow musicians. Now it's 90% noisy, poorly built Chinese junk that knocks off the big name gear, and well known outfits are closing up shop or consolidating.
