Worst flap discs ever

[ukracer]

Well if it has "super quality" written on it, it's a sure sign it won't be. At least China are employing English speaking proof readers these days.

You know if an advert has to shout about a feature, it's going to be spin. "Multi tool tool kit with 200 accessories!" 198 of them are going to be microscopic circles of emery paper you're never going to use, one will be the arbor (oh and yet another tiny spanner).

I never bother with adverts that wont tell you the price....you know its going to be OTT.

China is single handedly killing the world

In some ways i understand it we all like to pay less BUT you cant tell good stuff from bad stuff. Sometimes the fakes are better than the originals.
Trying to buy a genuine battery for a phone is a lottery.

Norton abrasives do some very good flap discs.

Didn’t you got to school, he said 5 letters

Yes, each day this week - they pay me to 'teach' or something.

I just reckoned they may abbreviate it to five...

Scunthorpe?

My Brother in Law is from there. Since he left, I believe that the town is now known as Shorpe.

If we ever enter warfare with China then i propose just bombing them with salt water...everything in there fighting arsenal will be red rusty in 3 days and rendered useless...job done

If there's ever a war with china I'm taking their side, most of the stuff I buy comes from there I don't want to be in their bad books

Not quite, as the old saying goes "it takes 2 to tango" and IF we weren't such tight gits always wanting something for nothing then China wouldn't be able to sell cheap tat in the first place.

And not just that, half of the companies that are there are USA and UK/Europe owned because of the cheap labour so more profits for them.

I hear what you say and agree with you, but there is a but................

No one wants to seem to work here, so we sold off all our old tech to allow them to make all the stuff we once made, of course they don’t have the sa,e know how so quality went down the sink hole

Chinese manufacturing and there tat would not have lasted 2 mins in the post war years as back then if things broke they got mended and not left in the yard with the rest of the broken metallic garbage...They tapped into a nation that ended up not being able to mend things and made stuff cheap enough to have us not bother or have the need to learn to mend its all very very sad the way we have become slaves to the retail giants selling this muck as well.
