Man, I hear you... I have noticed the same thing. I have a few cheater pipes I use on occasion to help my shoulder problem.

I agree with the buy the best you can afford argument. But, I buy Craftsman tools because I don't do mechanical work for a living and Sears is 10 minutes away. There are occasions when I've bought made in China stuff when I'm in a bind.

Since I'm a gadget tool person, I've bought an assortment of some useful and some not so useful tools in the past. I had forgotten that recently I fell for the Klenk Select-a-Bit screwdriver advertised in Popular Mechanics. Didn't turn out to be as good as I expected.
