Buying Furniture

Marie buys furniture from Pottery Barn. I haven't got a clue where it is made. It is pretty durable stuff, though.

Being an informed consumer, I pay attention to the cost-benefit ratio. For the most part, I could care less where it is made. For that reason, I buy Japanese cars, even though most of what I buy is actually made in Tennessee or Georgia. If the cost-benefit ratio for Chinese furniture was sufficiently attractive, I would buy it. However, I doubt that would be the case.
