Just left a music store in Nashville that had a wall of cheap capos

I popped into a small shop off Broadway last week and noticed they had a rack of basic capos for $5 each, all the same brand. My $30 capo broke after 6 months, so I grabbed one of these to test it out, and honestly it works just as well. Anyone else find that spending more on accessories like this is a waste?

I bought a fancy capo once and it broke so fast I'm convinced some of them are made of wishful thinking...

And yeah @lunakim, I think "wishful thinking" is basically the raw material most capos are made of. I've got three broken ones in a drawer that cost more than my first guitar. My $5 Nashville special has outlasted all of them combined, which tells me I'm probably just paying for the color of the box.
