this is just your opinion. People have no way to know longevity of the product they are buying

  Not between a $100 product and a $120 product on a store shelf. Because the difference is slim to none. They are all similar quality. Pretty much anything within about an order of magnitude in price will be value engineered like everything else. Go to a specialty store with 10x the budget and they’ll hook you up with something where price was not a primary engineering factor.

    Will they? Or will they hook you up with feeling superior while selling you the same crap branded differently?

      You can be ripped off at any price level, but you won't get a premium product for budget prices. Reputation and quantification is, of course, key. For example, the $1200 chair I'm sitting on is unquestionably better quality than the $120 chair it replaced. The $120 chair had no warranty, only the retailer's return policy. The manufacturer of the $1200 chair will gladly send someone to my house for free to replace a squeaky wheel more than a decade from now.
