shopping - Quantity or quality?

I am more on quality. Several years ago, I was more on quantity but I changed because my clothes won't last that long. I tried to buy some cheap tops and when I tried to wash it, it was damaged. There were lots of small hole in it. That was why I am more on quality now. I have less clothes, but they last long. I have this favorite dress that I bought five years ago, and it still looks new.

For useful things like furniture, cars or electronics, I prefer quality over quantity and pay more because it's worth my money. If I bought something for cheap knowing that it won't last very long, I would have to spend more money buying replacements for it. But for clothing and shoes, brands and non branded clothing make no difference to me. There are some branded clothing which are pretty expensive and bad quality too. So I prefer buying non branded clothing for a cheap price, they still last long and are as good as branded clothing. But branded shoes of course are better than bad quality shoes but I tend to take really good care of all my things. So quality and quantity depends on what kind of product you're buying.

I go for quality because if I'm going to spend money on something I want it to last and work for a long, long time.

hi there CW! well, it would depend. i would choose quality when i would buy gadgets. since gadgets should last if possible for a lifetime. but for my clothes i would look into the price if i feel it's too expensive for the clothing i would not purchase it since i know i can have the same product at a lower price. i have purchased a lot of items at a lower price and it fits me best you would not think that it's of low quality brands. hmm.. that is what we call wise shopping.

It depends on the stuffs I want to buy. For food, if I can buy a nice tasty food with lower branded and more quantity and cheaper price......Why not..?

I guess it depends on how you take care of your things. I admit I don't have many branded items but my not-so-well-known brand items last longer than I expected. And I think that's great.

Depends on what I am buying. If it is something large and expensive, definitely choose something that has a reasonable reputation. I would rather spend a little more on say an electrical appliance and get something that will last a lot longer with less maintenance then buying something cheaper that works out more expensive in the long run. On the other hand smaller items well there are unbranded products that are quite good and will do just as well as a brand product. It also depends on what the specific item is to be used for. I may by several really cheap t-shirts for instance to use when doing heavy gardening, painting and diy, because they get damaged quite easily and an expensive shirt would last the same amount of time so why pay extra. On the other hand when going out it is preferable to use a little more, because they last longer, and if in a classical style you can use for example a pair of shoes for years.

I don't buy branded clothes, shoes and other stuffs. My mom buy those things for me. She works and live in UK, so every year when she comes home to visit us,she always bring me and my siblings clothes from UK. But, here at home, I only buy simple clothes as long as I am comfortable. Have a good day

Quality is really going to be the thing that are going to really be the thing. I want something that is going to be rather long lasting. I'd rather have a lack of variety that lasts a long time, as opposed to many things that are not going to last me all that long. I'm getting to the point where I want to stretch out everything that I buy, as long as I really can, to get the most out of every single purchase that I make. So yes, quality is really going to be the driving force behind a lot of things that I buy. Quality is in fact what it is to say the very least. I would rather have things that will last, even if they are few. So I try and look at products of all types, clothes or electronics that I can get a lot out of from a durability standpoint. So quality is king as far as I am concerned.

Quality! Its really nice to have something that you bought (even if its a bit costly) that will last for a long time. I have tried buying low quality cheap things and they get easily broken.

I prefer to buy a intermediary product. Not buy Adidas or Nike which are very expensive, I buy thing that have a good quality and the price is for me, for my wallet.
