બેઠક Bethak

ભાવમાં સાદું, તોલમાં સાદું નહીં.

bhāvamāṁ sāduṁ, tōlamāṁ sāduṁ nahīṁ.

Literally
Simple in price, but not simple in weight.
What it means
Items that appear cheap often turn out to be short in measure.
ગુજરાતી કહેવતસંગ્રહ (Gujarati Kahevat Sangrah) (1921) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · English is machine-made and nobody has checked it yet

Heard it differently, or know we've got the sense wrong? Tell us — that is exactly the kind of correction this needs.
