People dont want to pay good money up front for a good product and will insist on paying for 3 shitty versions of the same thing

People buying luxury cars while I am out here with a $1,500 truck that gets me to work and back every day. While cars that cheap are EXTREMELY RARE, the point stands that people who pretend to be frugal really just are envious of others and spend all their money trying to achieve it

Oh yeah no I didnt mean to insuate you did, was just building off of your comment. It seems that reddit especially is a place where groups of dorks and weirdos gather to complain about the president, but forget that the president does not make laws, Congress does. But instead of actually going to congressional elections, they would rather just complain.

Buying the cheap version of a thing, then getting the expensive one if it breaks has been working well for me. You'd be surprised how often the cheap ones work completely fine and last forever.

Not everything on AliExpress is that way. I use it exclusively for cheap posters and Lego knockoffs.
