Looks Like the Trade War Is on, Maybe [View article]
I bought dinner plates and bowls made in China. Of course they are relatively cheap but looked fine. They all chipped within a month. I was wondering where I could find decent plates. I had to go to Macy's of all places and buy some that are made in Germany. They cost $25 a plate but have lasted 6 months so far without any chipping. Chinese manufactures are JUNK.
