意思
The better the quality of a product or service, the higher its cost usually is.
文化背景
In the bazaar, price is rarely fixed. However, the 'quality' argument is the ultimate trump card for a seller to stop the haggling process. With high inflation, Iranians have become very brand-conscious, believing that international brands (though expensive) are the only way to ensure quality. When hosting, Iranians often buy the most expensive fruits or nuts to show respect to guests, embodying the idea that quality (price) reflects the value of the guest. In cities like Isfahan, 'Keyfiyat' is a matter of national pride. A master's signature on a piece of metalwork significantly raises the price.
Use the informal version for 'Street Cred'
If you want to sound like a local in the bazaar, use 'Har cheghadr pool bedi, hamun-ghadr ash mikhori'.
Don't sound like a snob
Be careful not to use this to look down on people who buy cheaper items. It's best used as a self-justification or professional explanation.

The 'Zahmat' Factor
In Iran, quality is often equated with the 'effort' (zahmat) put in. Mentioning the effort can strengthen your use of this proverb.

5 个问题Rarely. It's almost exclusively for products and professional services. Using it for people can sound objectifying.
Yes, if you are discussing your salary expectations and want to emphasize the value you bring.
There isn't a single proverb, but you might say 'پول برندش را میگیرد' (You're just paying for the brand), implying the price is higher than the quality.
It has Arabic roots but is fully integrated into Persian. The pure Persian equivalent would be 'Chand-o-chuni', but that is very literary.
You could say 'همینه که هست' (It is what it is), implying 'you paid little, so don't complain about the crap you got.'
