I think if you guys sold out to the chinese I'd give up on this hobby for good. It's hard for a lot of us to pony up the money for your goods but they are worth it! Quality products backed by unmatched customer service. I've toasted a number of ESCs, many I freely admitted fault to, and yet as far as my memory goes back I've only had to pay for one or two. That said I buy a lot of cheap crap from overseas as well, but that's primarily experimentation or batteries. If I toast a $18 motor doing something stupid who cares, if I kill a $200+ motor I'd lose it!
