Things you got where high price didn't equal quality

[El Kabong]

Oakley sun glasses....I had a sweet pair of Oakleys and the fucking ear pieces kept breaking. And it's $15 a pop to buy just the frames...FUCK THAT SHIT!

I've had some expensive wines that weren't that good, but I've also had some expensive wines that were just phenomenal.

I paid £60 for a Paul Smith belt a couple weeks ago. I've worn it about 5 times and already it's starting to look scuffed and marked in places.

I don't know if this is normal but I was a bit disappointed. I mean I bought a watch with a leather strap at the same time and that gets taken on and off all the time and there's no marks on that at all.

Oh another, not really that expensive but I bought a cashmere jumper from Mark's and Spencer for £50 which already has holes in it after about 18 months. I've never had holes in a jumper before and this was one of the most expensive and supposedly quality garments I own.

60 pound on a belt ... you are very well off Bilbo!

After years of owning Fords, my old man bought a C Class Merc with his retirement payout.

Bloody thing has never been out of the garage.

Why are you worried about what I'm doing? If you ever get given six months to live and have your body ravaged with cancer I'm sure the government will help you out with a couple hundred pounds a week too.

I once paid the equivalent of 200 pounds for a jacket and it was tattered and worn within 6 months or so. I didn't even wear it that much. The dry cleaners must have got to it or something.

I won't spend so much on single items these days unless it is a coat or something strong and looks like it will last. I have a leather jacket that has lasted 8 years and still looks decent and I have a winter coat that cost a fair bit and that has seen me through 5 winters now. Those kinds of things are worth paying for. Jackets you need to be careful with.

Who's worried?
I don't dispute that, just the spending £60 on a belt part of it!

You've been unlucky with oakley, I get mine for close to 7 years now and they still look great. I feel your pain for wine though
