    It is not even attractive. If it costs that much it should come with some gold. Like about $950 worth of gold.

    You might even find that same outfit at Goodwill in a month or so if some rich person got it for Christmas and did not like it. :2thumbsup:

    Goodwill is the best place to shop for clothes.

    why does it cost that much? because people will pay that much.

    if they thought they would make more money by charging $10,000 for the same damn thing, they would.

    some people would buy it for $1250, but if it was sold for $12.50, they wouldn't buy it because they would think that there is something wrong with it

    also, when it gets marked down to $300, some dumb-ass is going to think that they got a bargain

    it costs that much because it also wipes your ass for you, does your dishes, and starts your car in the cold.

    Its all in the fine print, duhhhhh

    ^ yes, people are often suspicious of quality if the price is low. also, there is a greater sense of prestige if the price is higher


    I think that there is a business case study about Mrs. Field's Cookies. They sold more cookies when they increased the price.
