Has anyone bought bulk items from some of the chinese companies? If you do a google search for chinese fishing tackle, you find a ton of items that cost a lot more over here. I just don't know if I trust those guys over there.

What sites have you used>?

Be careful, the ones that I google searched for info all had bad feedbacks from buyers. They show a excellent price on the Rapala's.

China probably has the worst quality record in the world , haven't you noticed ?

agreed, lots of the stuff is pure crap.
