Thanks for the informative post.
1. I don't entirely disagree once you get to the real high end. Mid pricepoint stuff is pretty cheap compared to what a similar item (in terms of production cost vs retail) would be if it were some other kind of product.
2. Great. If you still decide to go that route do it with perspective. Who knows, it might be the right choice for you and the product could be totally fine.
