I think the original example in this post is a very serious problem. It amazes me that the vendor just offered another one or refund. I would guess that the same part may be sold elsewhere. There must be some way that we can have this removed from the market.
Now to add to the rant! I was using one of my Chinese body hammers yesterday and the head flew off. Upon examination I discovered that it was glued together with no wedge or anything. There was a little blck dab of something on the top to make it look like a properly constructed hammer.
