Isn't that the same for most products? One big difference between the super cheap mass produced product and the more expensive 'artisanal' product is that the more expensive product has less negative externalities . When I buy the more expensive local meat as opposed to the the super cheap imported meat, part of what I'm paying for isn't just a better product, but also supporting certain farming practices I prefer.
