I would partially agree with that.  People (me as well) tend to look for a good price.  With me, depending on what that item is, I may be willing to gamble with Chinesium quality.  But let's say I need a camshaft... I'm not willing to gamble on all that time, labor and cost of additional things like gaskets or single-use parts.  If I go to a Ford dealer and pay that astronomical price, does that get me the quality I seek?  I will bet a dollar to a dog turd that it doesn't.  Parts, in general, are sucking in the quality department... regardless of what you pay or where you source it.
