You will get the same at Home Depot..Why did you go with Amazon in the first place? Was it that much cheaper?

It'd be easier to answer "not realizing it wasn't made in China."

Exact same thing happened to me a few weeks ago.

Or you could just take some Clorox wipes and wipe them down...

Folks are just gonna have to decide what sector of Chinese manufacturing their going to support with their gubment handout checks.

The electronics sector, the home improvement sector, the clothes and fashion sector, the dildo sector or maybe the garden and outdoor sector.

Make no mistake about it. China's gettin' her cut.

I had to order a new tv to replace one that crapped out last night. I wanted to buy American, but that wasn't really an option for an electronic, but I did spend some stimulus supporting a local butcher yesterday so its a wash at this point.

Even things that aren't "made in China" have many parts that are made in China - like TVs and automobiles.

World manufacturing of light industrial goods is dominated by China. I don’t know if a traditional customer boycott could be effective. I think it’ll take an effort by governments to punish them.

You DO realize the likelihood of you catching Covid-19 from something made in China is INFINITELY smaller than catching it in the USA, right?

Also, if this is about not "supporting China" things are a hell of a lot more complicated than throwing away a paint brush you already purchased. But whatever makes you feel better?

I am organizing my basement. I actually picked containers and shelving because they weren't made in China.

I'm just really pissed off at China.
