Default Re: If a Customer Were to Ask You

... what the hell does change? T-shirts have been the same for 50 years, bit of material 4 holes and a label... there all made in sweat shops, doesnt matter where you buy them from or how much you pay does it...they all do the same thing don't they?? Phuk no! You pay for what it looks like and how it makes you feel, just because I spend $100 on a designer label t-shirt does that make me a sucker for not buying one at K-mart for $10??... who cares how cheap silicone emulision is? People pay for the feeling and the experience of it.

The product is worth what consumers are willing to pay for it. How much do you reckon a bottle of perfume actually costs to make? Its just a fragrance and a sexy looking bottle. Put a nice smelling perfume in a bottle that looks like crap and it wont sell for whatever price you put on it... put it in a sexy bottle and all of a sudden its the hottest fragrance of the season.

People need levels in our society its called a 'capitalist' society, consumers want to know there are better products, its what our society strives for. The relative costs of making a product have absoloutley nothing to do with the price people are willing to pay a product.
