    It’s also impossible to know if the 30$ item will actually last twice as long as the 15$ item. What is clear is the price tag.

      Yeah, people act like there are all of these high quality substitutes available. There isn’t, and they aren’t coming back.

      Just take a gander at the buy it for life subreddit. Every comment on each post is “Yeah this product was high quality, but since then they have cut x, y and z corner and the quality is now trash”. A lot of those products are American made, and now they are crap.

      So no, I don’t care anymore because it’s a crap shoot. Nothing is indicative of quality, not even price anymore. I have dirt cheap Chinesieum items that have far outlasted their USA made counter parts, some already almost by a decade.
