I'm with n0nsensical, quality is still out there, it's just that people no longer have a discerning enough eye to spot it. I can't buy so easily that it's related to the quality of man but there's definitely something to be said for the fact that brand new cars go for so much these days when they're little more than fiberglass and bits of metal.
But there are a considerable number of upshots to living in this use once and discard society - as I type this I'm wearing a $300 pair of designer sneakers that I got for $35 at Buffalo Exchange and $65 jeans that I picked up for $10 at Gap because I only shop there between seasons. I've found that even if you can't be sure of the quality, you can almost always shop at a discount.
From dumpster diving freegans, couch surfers, bargain blogs and Facebook furniture giveaways - it's not all going to hell in an overpriced sweatshop labored handbasket.
