Just got a notice from my parts supplier in Shenzhen.
All businesses in Shenzhen, China's manufacturing hub, are closed effective immediately for an indefinite period. That includes all shipping companies including FedEx. NOTHING is going in or out of the most important manufacturing hub in the world right now, and there is no timeframe on when it may reopen.
Supposedly, this is due to a Coronavirus outbreak. We all know that reason is crap. I suspect the invasion of Taiwan is about to begin. Can't think of any other event big enough to warrant this.
Just thought I would pass along the information in case anyone had any doubts.
Seems to be true, and yes they're blaming the coof. I also call total bullshit as well and there's a lot more to this. 90% of the world's plastic garbage and electronics are made their. Get ready for some massive spikes in price. The Dollar Store is going to be the $10.00 store shortly.
And there goes the US supply chain...

They can extend the lockdown? You mean two weeks to slow the curve can last yrs?!!
Damn it! I only recently discovered the joy of $1 Chinese junk!
aliexpress on suicide watch

They’re gonna have to rename Dollar store into:
“Everything is Made of Wood Now Store”
