Does quality go hand in hand with price

in Indiaunited2 years ago


A few days ago I got into a heated argument with a couple of friends about quality and what price had to do with it. From my friends point of view, anything which is expensive has to be quality. My argument was that it’s not always the case since some expensive things are pretty shit anyway. But then at the end they managed to rake up examples from no where just to proove me wrong.

The whole thing started from a drink that I bought. For some of us the drink is really nice but for a few of them we have overhyped the drink and it’s not that nice. They claim when they bought it the other time they didn’t understand why we liked it so much. They went on to compare it to one other similar drink called kalipo.

Kalipo was slightly more expensive than this other drink but not by a huge margin. From their arguments they were trying to saw we wanted the other one all because kalipo was more expensive than it, but then I keep asking myself will a price difference of about 0.5 cents deter us from buying kalipo if we liked it that much?

Since it was part of their points they didn’t wanna concede defeat. Eventually they brought in examples which didn’t really work here and eventually we had to stop arguing. Just imagine you bringing in expensive cars in a drink conversation? They made ridiculous comparisons but even after the argument am left wondering if what they said is really true.

Yes, I understand that with certain things the price dictate how quality they are but it’s not with all products certainly. A use case is a popular biscuit that I fell inlove with so much. When it first came out it had a lot of quality hence a lot of us loved it. After inflation and all that the company was trying to compromise its quality so they ended up destroying the biscuit.

Yes people still but it now even though it’s 3 times the price it was at first but not a lot of people but it now. They wanted to compromise the taste but then it’s ruined now. A lot of other biscuits didn’t compromise their taste but it’s way cheaper, so does the price of that biscuit make it quality? No.

When it comes to products does the price really matter. If it’s good it’s good right? Does it have to cost so much to prove it’s good?

Sort:  

This one de3, the price doesn’t matter oo. We recently discovered a biscuit that was 6 cedis and it was so good. We spent the next couple of days abusing it. Meanwhile we have spent big monies on other biscuits that can’t even compare to that. Most things are just overhyped and we get blinded by that. But if you take your time to explore, you will find better things with really affordable prices.

😂😂you see. I argued a lot but you know how boys argue. They started mentioning big stuff like cars and all.

In all i think for some things the price goes with how good the thing is but it’s not always.

I don’t really think price has to do with the quality. Compare some expensive restaurants to less expensive ones and compare their food. I bet some less expensive ones serve better food than the others.

It’s all about marketing.

Yep that’s true too. I don’t know how I gift think of all this that day.🥲

😂😂how would you know.
