Tent poles are possibly the most temperamental part of any tent and many tent companies will not extend their product guarantee to cover the tent poles
As a rule of thumb, you get what you pay for and if you are serious about camping or serious about getting decent quality in a camping related product, it's better to purchase a decent quality item from a company that specializes in camping related products
Patching a tent pole together will only get you so far and depends on the nature of the damage but don't expect to get 100% function out of it - consider it a temporary quick fix solution until you can get something more permanent
A lot of it also depends on the style of tent you have eg a simple a-frame or pup style tent is far easier to assemble with improvised parts than a complex geodesic dome
