1.My question to all team PG is do you buy cheap and low quality or save more and buy quality stuff...?

2. If you know the thing you are buying is very rare in country and its imported but seller has set very high margin on it will you still buy it or leave it and go for local low quality..?

Thank you

1. If the thing I'm buying is something I'll use a lot and is of my personal interest/passion like say a TV or Speakers or PC etc, then I try my best to get the best possible thing available for the budget I have and try to save more to get quality stuff.

2. I might if I can't find it anywhere else or can't wait etc.

Generally, I believe in buying better quality stuff even if it costs more if and only if i think it'll last more.

Being more specific - I never compromise on something I want. If I like something i.e. phones, TV, laptops etc, I won't think twice before spending more money.

Haan if it's something I don't really care about e.g. clothes, accessories, etc, I go with whatever comes in the budget. I'd get a first or second copy pair of jeans rather than spending tons of money on getting authentic original stuff.

I have a very minimalist lifestyle, I don't spend alot of money, I don't regularly shop or even monthly for clothes and other stuff. But I purchase stuff ofcourse and try to get the best I can in the budget I have and try to get something that has some productive use, though I do go for pure aesthetics at times (and I'm not proud :unsure: ).

You'd be surprised how much of a difference not having alot of stuff makes.

1) For one, my room is pretty much empty, I love empty rooms somehow plus easier to clean.
2) I travel alot so being able to pack all my belongings in literally 15 minutes helps alot.
3) I wouldn't say I spend any less money, I just spend the same amount but on quality stuff rather than impulse purchases, so things like a good laptop or a phone or usually books. :D

That being said, I have made impulse purchases, few though they are, I did regret them alot.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
