You ignored the rest of what I had to say to make an ignorant comment about the first line
The “free market” is indeed broken but how on earth do you figure it was supposed to lead to top quality goods? The market exists for low, mid, and high quality goods.
There really is nothing more to be said unless you want to explain how a different system would eliminate crappy goods from the marketplace. But I don’t expect you actually have an answer to that.
No market prohibits the production of shitty goods. I am stuck on that because it’s the specific thing you referred to in your first comment. You say capitalism fails to fix the problem which acknowledges it’s a problem - with or without capitalism. Because we live in an extremely connected world. We’re not limited to the craftsmen in our immediate vicinity anymore.
The ease of transporting goods across the entire globe is why we have to do so much more work to identify the good products.
