- toyg 7y agoA lot of luxury-priced cars also have little particularly luxurious about them. The expression "you pay for the badge" comes to mind, which is precisely what luxury branding is about: the value of a $1k stand is that you paid $1k for it regardless of practical considerations, just because you could.
- walterstucco 7y agoNot at all. When you buy a luxury car you don't pay a lot just because you can, you pay a lot just because you can afford the kind of leather they use for the interiors, which would be too expensive for regular people.
- freetime2 7y ago> there is nothing luxury avout the stand, it's essentially identical to any other stand Some of the features that make it "luxury" in my mind are: * Build materials / quality * Small footprint * Magnetic connector (no screws) * Ease of adjusting height / rotating (according to Apple) For a 32-inch, 16 lb monitor that may need to be moved around a lot and shared amongst multiple people, I can see how those qualities might be important enough to justify the price for some. And if it's really identical to any other stand out there, can you show something comparable at a lower price?
