A business owner tested if customers would pay more for American-made.
The results were 'sobering.'
Afina founder Ramon van Meer wanted to see if people would buy a
Made-in-USA version of his specialty shower head.
He found it would cost three times as much to produce -- and
raised the sale price by 85%.
After several days of testing, a total of zero customers bought
the USA model.
..
..
Armed with real numbers, he set out to do a test with two identical
products, with the only difference being their origin and, critically,
their price: visitors to Afina's website were presented with the
option of a Chinese-made item for $129 or a US-made version for $239.
...
...
After several days and more than 25,000 visitors, he said he sold 584
of the lower-priced shower heads and not one single purchase of a
US-made version.

Think about that MAGA idiots....
obviously the cheaper item will sell, if the product quality is the same, why pay more?
