China doesn’t want foreign companies selling cheap goods in China so essentially everything needs to be imported even if it’s manufactured down the street from you in China.

It is possible to buy good products cheap. But there you need to be smart, smarter than I am, and have contacts. A sub contractor might sell excess product under the table for cheap if you know where to find it (I don't). chinalawblog.com had an article why you should always have your production samples shipped to you and never have any sample batch "destroyed" by your manufacturer. They may just sell it under the table. So you may be able to buy a REAL Gucci bag that was designed by Gucci bad was never available on the market with this kind of design. Really rare. :-)

It's possible to buy illegal goods cheaply everywhere but that's just it it's a grey/black market goods since they are dodging the taxation imposed on the by the Chinese government.
