・you get what you pay for
・price of something is equal

You get what you pay for
這句話的字面意思是「你得到你所付出的價值」，但是實際上，它指的是「便宜的東西有它便宜的原因，而昂貴的東西通常有它昂貴的價值」，也就是「一分錢一分貨」的意思。

Don't you feel that you get what you pay for?
（難道你不覺得一分錢一分貨嗎？）

除了這句話，還可以用 the price of something is equal to its quality 表達相同的意思。

I buy expensive ones because they often have high quality because I believe that the price of something is equal to its quality.
（我買貴的東西，因為我相信價格等於品質，貴的東西通常品質較好。）
