If you have or had the means, you will know what I mean. The market is flooded with products, too many products. Everyone trying to fill a nitch, everyone is trying to fill a nitch because products don't satisfy us. Or they say there is a gap, but is there really? Or do the product manufacturers simply hold back on features for pricing and market segmentation.


So why not produce a product with the features that consumers want? Why offer less of a product and sound off that the whole value of the product is more than the component value of the feature/s. Because it eats into the margin of profitability! But what are these margins? And are they sustainable? Is the product sustainable?

Buy Quality! You will never go wrong. Pay more! You will not be let down. You know this. Companies price the price points that they think due to market studies/surveys and so right off the bat, the product is hindered with limitations. All products of quality, go further and the brands stand behind them for a long time. Take Tiffanys, you can take anything you buy there and bring it back to get fixed or cleaned for nothing; and you don' t loose value if you ever need to part with it. Take BMWs, although I think they have tinkered a bit too much with their designs, the quality is still there. Anything wrong with the car and the brand takes care of it and the car is of a higher quality so things don't fall off and last longer. And what other car can go so many miles kilometers without the standard 3000 or 3500 mile oil change, maintenace. Cost of ownership is huge. And what about those beautify purses you buy from Gucci or what ever, take them back anytime for service, free of charge and you will have that purse in ship shape condition for as long as you want. Enough examples, you get the point, I think.

It's really not paying more. The cost of the lesser products over time is more. The addage, you get what you pay for really applies. You just need to know when and where to buy these things at your price point. And, just save up for them. Learn to do without for a while.
