I've been listing a lot of my late uncle's stuff on craigslist, and if it's something from "central machinery" I get emails asking if it's harbor freight.......If I tell them yes, I don't hear back

It sure seems to be getting tougher to get away from "Made in China" or some other country besides the US these days.

I ordered a pair of Frank Thomas boots for the wife the other day online from Cycle Gear. I knew they weren't made in the US but was under the impression that they were made in Great Britian...more specifically...England.

Well they arrived yesterday and as I was inspecting them...(they are ok but not so great) I found a small tag that read "Made in Pakistan".

As far as air compressors...mine is quite loud too so last night I bought an air tank so I can use it for the tires on the bikes and vehicles and won't have to fire that loud azz compressor up each time just to add air. I bet that mofo was made in China too...didn't look but will now just to see.

Made in Pakistan = run away

Serious, they don't know how to fit or sew garments. Seems like they use some ancient 1950's maniken to fit with.
