There is a world of difference between an accredited supplier in a controlled supply chain and a random unvetted shop shipping from Alibaba.

You obviously have not talked to a mechanic lately, brand new shit Chinese auto parts from established controlled parts suppliers (NAPA, etc. ) are wasting a lot of time and money.

Napa isn't what I would call a controlled parts supplier, they are just a commercial vendor buying cheap parts to mark up. A parts supplier with would be the vetted factory, licensed and or QAd, to produce parts to a manufacturers specs

This is exactly the global problem and particularly a Chinese problem. The government in Beijing is heavily opposing transparent supply chain laws. Here we see -again- the results.
