[@chi-jenyang9752]

The first lesson I learned in economics is that there is absolutely no relation between cost and price. A smart seller should always set his/her price at the level that consumers are willing to pay, regardless of the cost.

[@LemonsRage]

Sometimes that is even better. Best example are artists who sell very few of their art while it was cheap but suddenly sold out after adding one or two zeros behind it. People want the sense of luxury. That's the whole reason why rolexs, hermes bags and ferraries are so hard to get.

[@Mahira-nx8df]

@@LemonsRage And also the prising of luxury brands works in the same way. They dont think twice to sell a 50 dollars product as 5000 dollar. And people even buy it.

[@thenathanimal2909]

There is absolutely a relationship between cost of production and price - with very, very few exceptions e.g China dumping products in US market to destroy foreign businesses

[@randomxnp]

Gü pudding in the UK. They raised their prices and found they sold more. People assume more expensive must be better.

[@grischa762]

@@LemonsRage Not exactly. The art market is not the same as the luxury brand market. Luxury brands work with limited editions to keep their regular customers interested. The official stores will sell the watches/cars at the same price as the "regular" editions/models. Basically handing over a watch for 10k that could be auctioned off for 100k+. But to get such an offer you have to first buy 10 "normal" watches. That is why they are so hard to get. It is intentionally created scarcity.

High-end android which is going to be full with third party staff, or iphone which is going to have the same settings, menu and options exactly as Mac from box without nees to have sparate accounts, users, software, configurations, and many more. That is the reason. People do not want spend time doing more actions. They just want to start using. That is why it is hard to change ecosystem. Because ecosystem will always work better than combination of different products. For this reason, the time person will spend doing configs, dowloading separate app for each android staff, charged by apple as money. Like whether you pay, or spend your time, which you can use to make money or for family. However, using iPhone with windows is nightmare. For microsoft dudes better to use android only.

yes, especially in Europe. $999 iphone must be converted into euros. The formula for this is $1 = 1€ and for the conversion we calculate 200€. so the basic iPhone for $999 in Europe becomes the price 1,199€. Thank you Apple 🍏

@@deadaimusic1889 Counting on the morality of people is not a bet that should be taken these days. However it's not necessarily sociopathic, it's simple greed and it's very widespread.

[@KainRazielMT]

@@deadaimusic1889 Large part of the blame lies on consumers (especially in the US market) whom would rather spend hundreds of dollars extra either just for the perceived prestige of having a logo of an apple with a bite taken out of it on your electronics, or out of being too ignorant to look around for alternatives (such as Android), and because "everyone else has Apple so I must have Apple too". You cannot change the world. People like this will always make up the vast majority of society, no matter your efforts, so might as well exploit them because frankly, that's what they deserve.

People who buy Apple are the same people who will spend nearly $10 on a cup of coffee at Starbucks ... just so they can walk around with a logo ... 🤦‍♂🤑🤣

[@Scientist_Salarian]

Or people like me, who just can’t stand Windows. Microsoft’s absolute trash is responsible for at least half of Apple’s market cap. I don’t want to pay $3500 for an editing laptop, but WTF Widows is nearly un-usable for creative stuff.

For the Apple Watch, I was surprised at that price, it does not include the price of the strap.
