When the value of the branded product is mentioned...
Yes, it is more expensive because it is essentially of better quality, but the question is how much more expensive it realistically needs to be.
I know this because when I was young I worked in a warehouse of branded clothes.
When the products of a well-known brand and a less well-known one are returned to the warehouse, and when these products are offered for sale to employees in the warehouse, the difference was a maximum of 10-20%. by no means 100% or 200%, how much is the difference in actions. means that brands really charge for the name (ie, they also charge for the name).
but when you buy a branded product, you buy it in some fancy, perfumed store, where the saleswomen are like models, where there are bright lights and advertisements, and that all costs money and thus raises the price of that product...
I've seen some good documentaries on how garments are made, designer clothing and generic, and I know there's often a difference. It's like with firearms...I never buy cheap ones, the same with optics (scopes) I buy the most expensive ones I can find as they are better say, Kahles over Bushnell for instance, Sig Sauer over Glock. I buy them for a reason though, because the job they do, not because I'll be perceived better.
I'm sorry my comments don't match yours in length, I simply don't have the time to write lengthy replies. I hope you understand.
Since I sometimes forget that I leave a comment and not write a post 🙂 thanks for reading and not apologizing for a shorter answer 🙂
