Who ever expected quality replacement parts for our cars would be cheap? I.E. low price low quality. You get what you pay for. My maternal Grandfather gave me the best advice I've ever heard and he was a citizen Navel electrical engineer. 'Buy the best you can afford. you won't regret it.' Don't go cheap it will cost you much more in the end. Ever cursed yourself for buying cheap tools?

Although there is some truth in the saying, "Penny wise, pound foolish," paying more doesn't necessarily guarantee better quality.

The rule of diminishing returns. The more you spend for incremental improvements becomes whether it is worth it. It's when your desires and wallet collide. $200K for an exotic you will never drive or a $30-$60 classic car you can actually enjoy driving.
