First the cheapest, then the best!

29/04/2025

When choosing to buy a product, we often just impulsively buy the first thing we can find, that kind of fulfills our requirements. Usually one of the requirements is cost, so we end up buying something cheap and not so great. Ever bought a crappy screwdriver that broke on the second screw?

On the other hand we get carried away and buy the best thing possible. “I’ll for sure use this band saw a lot, better get the good model!”.

Well, here’s a tip:

First buy the cheapest thing you can find. When it breaks, buy the best thing you can afford!

This is a great rule for life, because you won’t end up wasting money on things you don’t need — if the cheap one works, no need to buy the best!

At European Gear, our mission is to help you find the best product after the cheapest one broke.
