Default Chinese Oak plywood at Home Despot???

It's about 40 bucks US a sheet for 3/4". Has anybody used any of this? It
doesn't appear to be oak core. I'm a bit fearful of it because I used some
Chinese plywood (not oak, not sure what it was) on a job last year and
when the finish (latex paint) went on the veneer got quite a few bubbles
in it (i.e. came delaminated in places) I'll probably go ahead and pay the
higher price for the stuff I know is good just wondered what you'all
think.

I do not know of any Oak plywood that has an Oak core but I have used this
plywood and other than the grain pattern not being great I had no problems
with it.
FWIW I have had expensive plywood delaminate before also or should I say
that it was not laminated properly to start with as it separated as soon as
I cut it.
