As very untrue this may sound, it's the truth. The owner of the project is one of us here. I was equally shocked when I was told but who is to blame? The buyer? The seller? The importer? Or the government who choose not to control what get past its border? The manufacturer? The greedy businessman who ask for knockoffs to deceive unsuspecting home owners, builders and construction professionals?

When we argue some things here, I keep wondering why we can't tell ourself the truth. "Will I know the difference if I am the one buying it myself?"
I've said it times without number that some contractors may not know they are been ripped off when they are less informed.

Take for instance the issue of sharp sand as explained earlier. There are different types of sharp sand and their cost varies. Will a client know the difference? NO! He can only rely on what he hear from Mr A or what he confirmed from Mr X.

I bought some original toilet fittings sometimes ago and unknown to us everything inside it were changed to a knockoff version and it was packed and handed over to us. We didn't know until when we installed and we were having issues.
Will you have ever imagined paying triple market value for a product and getting a substandard fittings. This guys are good at what they do and so I've made a resolve to do my thing with verified businesses even if it comes at an extra cost.

I'm not the type of likes spending money on routine maintenance. If I can have a maintenance free build, I'll do my best to get it.

Braaabus! Where did you see the above happen! shocked shocked

Tiles getting burnt by hot oil from frying pan!

Chai, dearis god o!

But really, l have seen European Traders import products from China, repack and re-sell in Europe.
I am referring to Security products like CCTV PTZ Cameras, PIR's, e.t.c (which l bought out of, some years back) and saw same on Chinese trade site, confirmed as Chinese manufacture.

Having said that, l think not all Chinese products are bad (on the contrary, most are good), just that our own people go to China and specifically tell them to reduce the quality (so cost of manufacture can reduce), while they come to Nigeria and sell it as the same price of the unadulterated/original one.
Take the case of Automotive batteries as an example - Same body casing, same name, same price but one has less CELLS inside it!

There are also a lot of Chinese-made products in America (you just need to look at the Trade Deficit between the two countries to get convinced) so, generally speaking, l think the problem lies with unscrupulous Nigerian importers and their "cut-corners approach" to making extra money

To be honest it has never ever been the chinease fault but our brothers who go to the factory and demand low grades. The stuff from china that comes to the UK meet a specific industrial standard which we do not have in Nigeria.so anybody can ask chinease manufacturer to package anything they want and pay for it.
I had that expirience with thoughened glass and cc cameras.

I am interested also, what is the price of the door?

Can't Nigerians artisans make these doors if given a sample? because I use to see good wooden doors in Benin city, Edo state. I believe we can get good looking doors in Nigeria.
Well they are non creative or not willling to risk investment. I can build that machine that will mill that door.it's a basic CNC. Anyway I am building one wen I port back to Nigeria .
