I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren't worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

Scissors glide smoothly for the cut.

Worth it just for this 🤤

Assuming you followed the other threads advice and bought a decent pair of scissors. I remember one Christmas Eve where I could only find a cheap pair of kids plastic safety scissors.

I got a somewhat fancy pair of origami scissors form a little Japanese market near me. The wrapping paper glide is amazing. I've never had so many near perfect edges before this pair of scissors.
