I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren’t worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

    That’s one way to never get the best experience out of something, though.

    Buy cheap shoes to go running, and you’ll probably quit after a few weeks.

    Buy cheap tools, and you’ll end up rounding off nuts and stripping screws.

    Buy a cheap bike and you’ll end up hating cycling.

    Etc.

    Better would be to buy the best quality for your budget, assuming it’s something you’ll be using more than once or is something that isn’t critical to have as decent quality.
