Made-in-China Syndrome

Share definition
Made-in-China Syndrome occurs, when someone implies that your valuables are not much worth as you think by presuming that they were made in an economy using plenty of cheap labour, often out of envy, ignorance or piss-taking.
"Look at this ring! I got this at an auction website last week! That was a bargain as well!"
"T's have a look...Cheap sliver shine, innit? Probably hot stuff. Or a sweat shop fake..."
"Here we go again. You're going through another round of Made-in-China syndrome, David!"
