To be honest, like most people, I'm looking for a bargain even though I know that not all bargains are as great as they may seem...
Oh, cheers EvilV, but I think you may have misunderstood (or maybe I worded it poorly).
I was talking about manufacturer's dilemma where it is vital for companies to price their products accordingly - as close as possible to it's perceived market value... and how sometimes it's not always possible to achieve. Leave too big a price gap and someone else will fill that gap with a knock-off. Leave too small a gap and the company could go under from lack of revenue. That sort of dilemma.
My sentiment wasn't pertaining to our dilemma as consumers...
