Ix-nay on the ew-nay

What a stingy/indigent person firmly says regarding da purchase of a certain item, and meaning dat he will only agree to buy a less-expensive used model instead of a pricey "fresh off da store shelf" one.
With many types of items, it is indeed often a good practice to buy them second-hand, especially costlier objects such as houses, cars, farm/industrial machinery, tools, etc. But for other items like vacuum-cleaners or other dust-collecting appliances, batteries or other chemical-based products, untreated lumber, and other objects that tend to wear/dry out or "go bad" quickly/easily, "Ix-nay on the ew-nay" may in fact NOT be such a wise mindset, in dat DAT sort af "previously enjoyed" item might not be in very good shape anymore... here, buying a new item --- and then caring for it properly --- might actually be MORE cost-effective in da long run.
