Have you ever regretted buying something because of the quality?

I once bought something because I really needed it at that time. My budget was limited, so I chose the cheaper option. I thought, “It’s okay, as long as it works.” But after using it for a short time, I realized the quality was not good. It didn’t last long and didn’t work as well as I expected. In the end, I felt disappointed. Looking back, I regret not being more patient. Maybe I should have saved money first and bought a better one. Sometimes buying cheap doesn’t really save money. It can cost more in the long run. That experience taught me an important lesson: price matters, but quality matters more. What about you? Have you ever bought something cheap and later regretted it? Do you prefer buying affordable items, or saving first for better quality?
