Should ultralighters embrace the cheapest stuff that works or “buy once, cry once”?

Seconding this, my 3F backpack is great and very durable (6 countries as checked baggage, 4+ months of carry with no sign of any usage).

Does it have all the bells and whistles of a pack thats 3-4x the price? No, but you know what features you get when buying.

I'd never purchase a knock off sleeping bag, way to risky.
