Well, it would help tremendously if costs per month/year/lifetime were more obvious. A lot of people just don't know how long certain appliances are supposed to last at what price points comparatively. 7x is only a hefty price tag upfront when you know it will pay for itself over time, but even that is no longer certain.
- jtbayly 4y agoHow many years would you divide by as a “lifetime”? That’s your new failure year that lots of people would prefer for it to last longer than.
- someguydave 4y agoRight, judging long-term product value is like trying to win against the casino on their own slot machines.
