That "completely different, high-end garment" feeling is the whole point. You can't fake that with cheap materials. It's why some stuff just feels good and lasts. That extra $8 is buying the actual experience of wearing it, not just the look. More people should understand that.

Always feels good when a cheap tool saves you real money.

Exactly, and @rowan_butler93's gate vs. wall thing is spot on. You see it with stuff like school internet filters too. One school just blocks social media, another installs software that tracks every single site you visit. The block itself is the same, but the creepy tracking changes the whole feel of the place.

Yeah, my buddy had a job go sideways like @jackson.jenny said, his old toner just died.

Was it one of those green plastic ones? I saw a video where someone said the Tonic Studios corner punch is way better for thicker stuff.
