I think the Chinese mounts have their place but when you find that issues of build quality are begining to annoy you, it is probably time to be thinking about a Losmandy or a Vixen or some other step up.
FYI for Vixen I think the Portamount is made in China, while Sphinx SX EQ line and above are made in Japan.
THe Vixen Porta series are Chinese. The Sphinx, Sphinx D, GP2, and GP-D2 mounts are all made in Japan. The HAL-130 tripod often sold with these mounts is made in China.
