Again? Missed the part where it is interchangeable with things like furniture or autos?


I can definitely define the finer things in regard to many products. Properly stored and aged William-Selyem and Rivers-Marie Pinot Noir would be a good example. Wines made by two of the best winemakers in the US Bob Cabral (formerly) and Thomas Rivers Brown. Quality, consistency and taste are only matched by a handful of others like Kosta-Brown and Anthill Farms. And you pay for that.

By your own admission....

And that's just in the most basic comparisons of the stocks. Start getting into metallurgy and machining and so on and so forth the vast chasm between the quality of of those two final products grows....as does the price.

Isn't the franzia and rivers marie functionally the same? The whine guy is literally pissing money away lol.
 
I'm used to hard work.. I don't hang with anyone so i don't have nobody to call .. and the world is pretty strange .. n i live in the citi so if the crap hit the fan you have a place to go that is yours. No farm guy will give me n my family food for free..this is a island everything enters by boat if only that get affected by a few months, no supermarket will get anything, everything will be gone in less than a week .. after hurricane maria, ask me how I know.
I have friends in Barcelonetta. They kept me appraised once they had communication. And yeah, the island thing made it tough to help. On top of the horrible federal government response.

Held off thinking it was more off a standard model to come in below price point of the electric & hi tech wonders... The only Daystates I have ever ive owend are 20-25 year years old.... Also not fond at all of the super large burned in lazer Emblems- would totally hate to see that on a nice walnut stock. Keep it tastefull tiny- clean or on the grip.
Art matters

I can afford it, but why throw my money away?
Hobbies ? I have seen first hand jps you expect every $ back from your purchases.
Some enjoy the tools of the activity and realize the $s spent is the price you pay for
the time spent entertaining your brain.
Is going on vacation traveling throwing money away ?

Yeah I’m way behind on this new internet thing. Besides buying things
this is the first forum I regularly contribute ( maybe not ) to.
Good times, bunch of Harvard students thought they would take over some newsgroups. They ran into a group of Engineers, Scientists, Professors, Admins and worst of all Poets who objected. Smoking craters were the result.

I miss those days...

What the hell are you talking about? I was trying to say that a Black Wolf would not shoot any more accurately than the rifles that I have and those do the job I need to, so why spend the additional money just because it is a new product and has more knobs to twiddle? No, I don't expect to get back what I pay for my hobbies. Some of them have been throw away, but airguns and firearms hold their value better rather than golf clubs, fishing tackle and R/C airplanes. You can only sell what the market can bear. Vacations? I love vacations and spent lots of money of RVs because I got far more enjoyment out of them than going on a ship with 6000 assholes to do the same activities I can do at home without getting fat eating all the time. I don't like cruises. In my working career, I traveled to practically every country in the world, stayed in luxury hotels and ate gourmet food. That poop doesn't appeal to me anymore. So why do you have your underwear in a wad, sir? Apparently your opinions differ from mine, so let's leave it at that.

@Ratzy, with all due respect, is it a problem that others may spend “their“ money as they see fit. Your cost evaluation values simply don’t apply to others who see things differently. Why the consistent drivel? It’s not “your” money they are spending. No chastizing is necessary. We are all in the same hobby. What we choose to spend? Simply a personal thing. Buy what you like and can afford and be happy.

I said that quite some time back. Buy whatever floats your boat.

I simply asked for some definition of the cost differential. What i received were primarily rationalization or just "better because it costs more". Then people kept climbing into the thread making the same arguments. So I wanted to see if anyone could define the cost differential.

The only one who actually defined some of the differential was me.

But I do find it interesting that you attack me "drivel" when I have been polite and direct in all my responses (until personally attacked). Just because you do not like my argument does in no way make it "drivel".

Why must it be an argument? That some would pay more for what “you“ perceive as ”less” or “not worth it” or, needing the ”differential“ to be explained to you is moot. As you already made your point of not seeing the value. I apologize for using the word drivel…🙏 But you have simply belabored your argument.

Belabored to you, but I actually wanted someone to define the function/features that account for such a large differential. So I kept pushing. Then it became interesting to watch as each new poster failed. I was surprised by that. I felt the basic premise was fairly innocuous and that there would be a straightforward answer.

I will give you I did poke those that were comprehension impaired.
