      Just like the stupid high Jordans. You pay for the name. I would rather pay $50 for a pair of Skechers. I have not tried on Any Jordans that have felt comfortable.I refuse to pay $300-$500 for a name on shoes.I need comfort and shoes that are going to last.

    Better have real emeralds on it if you pay 1100$ for that.

    • @dominicbrunsmeier
      @dominicbrunsmeier Рік тому +19

      I do not know how expensive emeralds are. Matter of fact, no one knows, the price for all gems are speculative. Raw uncut emeralds are sold by mines for around 300$ per kilo. Then they are cut, not that expensive to do, and then, when it comes to a distribution, price suddenly scyrokets. Matter of fact, if doamonds in africa are mined by hand and supply far exceeds demand, inagine how many if them could be mined with a proper equipment. Gems are always as overpriced as a botteled water.

    I’ve bought a knock off look alike and I’ve bought a stores brand. Both lasted longer than designer. I bought a pair of sandals from Payless over 10 years ago for $15 got a little wet in a misty rain. Still going haven’t worn out. Bought a designer pair same style last summer from the designers store. After about wearing them about 4 times sole started coming off. Went back to the store they swore it didn’t come from there I had the receipt to prove it. Hadn’t been 30 days. Never again. Designer is made for that person that can afford to buy when they need new.

    Many articles now about ' quiet wealth': the very wealthy avoid labels and ' brands'. The vanity brands market these to middle/ upper middle class because they cling to a desire for status and the only way to separate themselves from Hoi polloi is to carry pricy, gaudy, advertisements in the form of clothing and accessories. What a scam. $50-100 nail polishes 😂😂😂

    I'm no Guchi, but nevertheless, at the cost of producing a unit of product at $2, I sell it for $10. And this is still lower than the average price for the same product on the market.
    Now imagine that I am as famous as Guchi. And how much will the price increase. It's simple. First you work for your name, and then, your name works for you, and maybe your children, grandchildren...
    I think it's a fair dividend.

    When you eat at a restaurant you pay 400-600% more than it cost and flush it down the toilet later. So why not pay 1000% more than it cost to make a purse that has perceived value. We pay ridiculous prices for cheap labor produced clothing and think nothing of it. We pay $60,000 for a pickup truck with all the bells and whistles and all it does is get us from point a to point b. We have always had a good economy because people are willing to spend money foolishly.

    There was no need to cut the bag apart and ruin it to come to the conclusion that you made. You could’ve inspected it like the “expert” that you are without ruining a perfectly good bag just to say, “I think it’s only worth $115.” This video is totally unnecessary.
    Also, everyone says it can be made cheap. Well, try compare the fake vs the real bag and you can tell the diff. Cheap is cheap for a reason but of course, these branded bags are not really worth their astronomical prices if we just factor in the labor and material costs. The rest of the value rests inthe brand name itself. Having said that, what a waste of a Gucci bag just to make this video to point out something that everyone already knows.
