Why I don't like expensive things....

Probably. But you can also save time and possible frustration with searching something that is both good and cheap and pay for the quality.

Cause it's comfortable, durable, warm - if we speak about winter clothes - and looks good?

Why buy used when I can have new?

Buying something of good quality also save you a lot of money in the long run. It does not need to be latest model as it appear you assume.

I just take care of my purchases.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
