I've been completely unaware of Chinese online shops.  To be honest, even though I know one can't get away from all of the products that are manufactured in China and sold under quality Western labels, I'd be hesitant to actually go to a Chinese online shop and actively supporting the shop.  There's an element of lack of trust, not knowing what the quality is going to be.  There's also a resistance to the mass production of plastic goods that are being dumped all over the world and responsible for worsening the environmental pollution at the factory source and also at the user level.  And a resistance towards a take over by China of world trade by dumping cheap products at the expense of competitors who need our support so they can continue with higher quality goods.  I'm aware that there are exceptions though in China producing quality products, however I'd rather buy those in an online shop I recognize.

Having said that, and coming from you @Hidden, I've got an open mind here.  Would be interesting to learn about experiences of others.  If someone could point out the positives, I'm open to a different view of looking at it.
