you get what you pay for

Cheap ass people who refuse to pay for quality and/or experience always end up buying super cheap goods or services below the 'it's too good to be true' mark. Then when said goods break, fall apart, stop working, or they are not happy with the service they were promised, they are genuinely surprised and will bitch to anyone within hearing distance of them that they got 'ripped off'. Literal meaning: if you buy a cheap product or service, 9 times out of 10 you will be disappointed as it will not live up to your (unrealistic) expectations. Get a clue and start buying quality stuff!
