Electronics are very cheap because most of them are very cheap.  You get what you pay for - except in China.  Then you often get far less than you pay for.

I once bought a Chinese mobile phone online, cheap and nasty as it turned out. Lasted less than a month.

I know someone who got an iPhone in Hong Kong for 1/3 of the American price.  It didn't last a full day.
