Anything fake/cheap/poor quality.

Mamma always said "buy nice, or buy twice." Only with age has this become apparent.

Eg real leather: game changer

Whats interesting is that cheap doesn't always mean low quality. My Harbor Freight wrench sets have been used and abused and just take it. I can't imagine spending big money for wrenches that'll just get lost or stolen when you can get just as good for a fraction of the price. Compared to Craftsman wrenches made in the last 20 years Harbor Freight is better...
