- asiachick 6y agoThis car has dents but those don't matter. Full price for you. Car still gets you from a to b just fine. This jacket has some holes and few stains but it will still keep you warm.
- moosey 6y agoEffectively, there is no difference between an apple and one with a bruise. I still get the same nutrition and taste, most other differences being unimportant. A jacket with a hole has massive loss of effectiveness, and I don't receive a new jacket to wear each day. A car with a dent has significant loss of value, not that it's something I'm terribly concerned with, I run all cars until they die.
- Enginerrrd 6y ago>Effectively, there is no difference between an apple and one with a bruise. I still get the same nutrition and taste, most other differences being unimportant. That's simply not true. The bruises become rot spots and before getting there they introduce oxidation which affects taste. The shelf life is then also diminished not only for the bruised apple, but for any that are nearby. Relatively speaking, I think the bruise on an apple is actually a measurably greater decrease in (relative) value than the dents in a car.

- perl4ever 6y agoYou could compare it to rust instead.
- incelmods 6y agothere is not the day you buy it. you are absolutely correct. it got bruised being dumped in the bin in the morning, and when you buy it in the afternoon there is no difference in nutrition and taste. You should buy milk and meat that expires the next day when you shop. I still get the same nutrition and taste, most other differences being unimportant. just like dense and purposefully dense to get that much needed confrontation is the same thing, to everyone around you.
- hansvm 6y agoI know this isn't the point you're making, but the right dent patterns can increase fuel efficiency and make cars more desirable to some buyers.
- saagarjha 6y agoOk, now I need to know about these dent connoisseurs who measure their impact on fuel efficiency.
- seneca 6y agoIf the vast majority of shoppers perceive a product as lower quality it is, almost by definition, worth less in a market. Quality is a very tricky idea to pin down (read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance if you'd like to hear a lot on the idea) and claiming that your own highly biased opinion on the matter is what counts as "objective" is a pretty bold claim.
- jankassens 6y agoI can understand that for a crooked carrot, but for example a tomato with broken skin actually gets bad pretty quickly.
- simlevesque 6y agoThis is true in some cases, but not most.

- pdonis 6y agoNeither is yours. But if yours is satisfied with the food you can get by ordering online, you're free to order online.
- maxerickson 6y agoIt doesn't sound like they are claiming that their perceptions are objective. In your previous post, you trip all over yourself acknowledging that their preferences are valid. It's obvious enough that's what they are driving at; they want a shopping service that accounts for their preferences.
