Buy Once, Cry Once

I believe there is a certain category of shit you buy, that is worth paying up for. Amazon, eBay, AliExpress and the like have their place, but in other cases, just getting what you want or getting "the best" is the right decision. This could be things you use every single every day, or use for making money, or just things you just love.

Here's some of the categories that fall into this category for me and I reserve the right to add to it:

Hand tools

Cookware and knives

Musical instruments

Vintage things you actually use...or give you extreme joy
