DOES COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INFLUENCE YOUR PURCHASE

I made that mistake just over a month & half ago of NOT doing the research on a company I bought a certain product I wanted. It wasn't the items manufactures fault, it was the company I bought it from was at fault. Took forever to get it w\o any replies of tracking or shipping information. Paypal was good about the posting of the item purchased, but that is were it stopped. The company finally shipped the product I ordered & even shipped it over night which I get tomorrow. I just didn't like the fact they lied to me over the phone.

Generally speaking, no. Quality determines my product purchase, not country of origin. If reliability isn't a requirement, value determines my purchase (not quality).

If I can help it, I'll avoid Chinese products. That's difficult to do these days, since most companies have their products made there. I prefer American made stuff, or German made stuff (tools, machined parts, etc.). Sometimes, the country of origin is so good at what they make...I have to go with them (i.e. Swedish hand forged axes are the best in the world) if quality is my priority.
