Hello hive.
Quality items are automatic joy givers
To me nothing is worth my money unless I find a guarantee that it will last me a good while or bring back some good returns after been purchased. This applies to everything I purchase including clothings. You will see me searching for quality fabrics that will not fade or wash it's colors off after a one time laundry. Purchasing the best quality items ensures that we do not have to spend money repeatedly buying thesame kind of needs or replacing an inferior product purchased from the market every now and then. You buy quality and at good price once and for all. And I believe that we all know that quality doesn't always mean expensive. You can chose to buy a brand new sneakers for $100 or pick a quality one at lesser price from a second hand store.
The difference is that one of them is new(And might even be inferior)while the value of the other one has been reduced because it is not longer new, mind you the quality of it is still intact.
Quality items are joy givers inferior materials can make anyone run crazy 🤣
Among the experiences I have had purchasing quality items was when I had first purchased a mobile phone to blog with on hive. While in the university I have used a Tecno pop2 mobile phone for 4years to tell you that I often neither loss my gadgets or have them damaged within a short duration of time. Shortly after coming onboard hive in 2020 I needed to get a mobile phone with a better camera quality and function but from the look of things I couldn't afford a new mobile phone at the time but despite several warnings from people that fairly used phones comes with so much risk, and might have been partially damaged I ignored the warning and purchased the phone.
This was a Tecno camon 12 series. Lucky for me I got it from a sis within the neighborhood and there is no risk of wether the phone has been involved in fraud of not. (It is possible to get a fairly used mobile that must have been used for fraudulent activities and one has to be careful when making purchase from fairly used stores especially when they are gadjets).
The mobile phone stayed with me for almost 4years before I eventually have it out this year, That is one lucky purchase of a valuable item with good quality that did stay with me for a good while.

In another experience I wanted to try my hands at purchasing a fairly used washing machine. It is a dare need and I had hoped that I could get a quality one and at good price from relocation items people sell whenever they are moving out of a country.
A third party was involved who helped me with the necessary transactions. The machine was delivered to the third party who happens to be a friend to the seller. Luckily for me he did a test run on the machine to determine it's condition only to find some malfunction and faulty party. I could have been a victim of a bad purchase if the machine was delivered directly to me since I had no experience using one before and will not even notice the faults. Having asked the seller about the issue he confessed to how he felt that I will gullibly purchase the machine been a novice in that line. Eventually the machine was returned but my refund was delayed for weeks because he had spent the money I paid for it already. Eventually I got my money back and was glad that the assistant of a third party saved me from purchasing an item that would have caused me huge loss.
