I need a lawnmower, I look to Craigslist. It's just a lawnmower.

Am I a cheap *******?

Well, there is "cheap" and there is economical. I furnished much of my
first home with second-hand....country auctions and one delightful dive
of an auction barn. Could buy a box of "junk" for fifty cents, and it
might have ten dollars worth of cookie sheets and cake pans. A few
slightly scarred but sturdy antiques....stayed at the auction barn until
4 am one night to buy a $2 library table. Cheap entertainment.
