Tools and sports equipment especially if it's something niche.
People shit on harbor freight but if you need a new tool or something for a hobby it's probably not something you're going to use often if youve already soent any significant tiem doing that hobby.
Buy the cheapest version of it and of you use it enough to either break it or figure out what parts of the design you don't like it's a good sign spending a little extra on a better version isn't a waste.
Especially getting into a new hobby avoiding the urge to buy expensive shit right at the beginning because you think it'll make you better at the thing.
Unless its like a jackstand harbor freight is fine for most one off things
Yea probably should have included the caveat tools but nothing that would benconsidered a safety device.
I'm also not buying fall prevention anything for as cheap as possible.
