This is my other profile. I've been catfishing you all for years now.

More like Jim Baker if this is a Trump guy.

i'd fancy going for a little troll..
sorry did i miss an S out there… -
He’s backtracked from his previous rather ahem judgemental position and now appears actually interested. He’s also commented with an honest question about value for money on my IG feed from when I posted my first pair of IH six years ago.
I think some people can't get over the sticker shock of some goods, so I kinda get where he's coming from. But, I don't know why some find it necessary to voice their opinions about it on social media either. The guy is clearly into guns. You could ask him why anyone would pay $3000 for a Wilson Combat 1911 when they could get a less expensive 1911 for around $500
Short answer: customers are willing to pay more for better quality -
You and these so called "rational points" have no place on the internet. I command you to leave posthaste.

I think everyone has to deal with this conversation at some point or another, unless you're really a frugal person.
Which is odd because you'd think people would learn not to be judgy assholes.
I deal with this with guns, watches and denim.
The last time I had this conversation was with someone that had $3k golf clubs.
Seriously, if you have to explain it they're never going to get it.

I would happily pay USD1000 on the right fishing rod. But any more the zero cents for a golf bat is too much.
I don't spend much on eating out, but I have friends who will happily drop USD500 per head on dinner.
I'm happy with the cars I have, I have no need for a bzillion dollar sports car. Some people do.
Horses for courses - wind your fucking necks in…...

The only time it becomes a problem is when your appetites are so far out of whack that you compromise your ability to make it in the world, especially if a family is depending upon you.

On the other side of things, I think we as consumers of high end items need to be honest with ourselves. Once you get to a certain price point the returns on investment as far as durability and performance goes is not proportionate to the cost.
Sometimes you just like things because you like things.
I can't tell you how many times I've outperformed someone with a $2k pistol with my stock $500 pistol.
I can tell you sure as shit I'm not turning the compost pile when it's in the gooey stage in $400 jeans…

Let’s call that one #18’s revenge. Or 31.. either or
