In the EU/US there are different costs of living, running a business and standards for employment. That is reflected in the price.

But as long it is cheap and you'll never visit China, then who cares that someone might be exploited there.

In terms of guitars, you can actually get better guitars for substantially cheaper from China. Should I pay more for less quality? Being "Made in USA" used to mean quality, but it doesn't anymore
