If you have the money, why waste it on low quality goods that will break? Buy better stuff instead and sell it or give it away when you find you don't use it anymore!

Quality, mid range equipment. Not luxury.

(The examples are unfortunate. For a runner it might suffice with $100 worth of equipment but not for a cyclist.)

Because oftentimes (depending on the type of product) they don't actually break, they're just slightly less luxurious to use.
