I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren't worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

I agree with you, It's generally true, but they can have significant differences. I'm on a meditation, and had the brand changed to a cheaper generic, there was a significant difference. It turns out, while the dose is the same, the delivery profile isn't. It was akin to a straight vodka, followed by a coke, Vs a vodka and coke.

Paracetamol etc, however, have no real differences.
