Well, value is only what someone will pay for it. Usually it goes hand in hand with scarcity but often propped up by brand (eg if you didn't know it was a Hermes bag, could it demand the same value?)

I've got a nexus 5x on google fi and while it's fine compared with the cost of my iphone, I've been unimpressed with the UX. Feels a bit clunky and non intuitive in certain areas-- this morning I was trying to get a number f
