I don't think I bought the cheap one.

If the issue is it's always too loose, or the teeth don't really go through the wires much, then it's either a bad crimper or you're not squeezing hard enough.
I've done hundreds of them and never had an issue with a decent crimper.
If the Fry's "Geek Squad" equivalent can't mange doing it, then they're just as useless as the actual Geek Squad.
