You are offended by people are smarter than you, aren't you? People who are educated and know more than you offend you so you have to insult them and denigrate their education. . . and ignore the facts that deny your stupidity, as you ignore the facts that right in front of your face.
You think everybody should do what you do. Sorry the world is not made up of Mad Dawgg's and if everyone were out there competing with you for your "bargains" they wouldn't exist for you. That's the law of supply and demand at work. Again an educated Economist telling how the real world works.
You prefer to be a crude rude skunk, insulting people. Hiding behind a computer, saying things that would get you a broken nose in person. You sir, are a cowardly bully. . . Ignorant and arrogant in your ignorance. I pity you.
Sparky you pulled the economics card out. If you are going to try "Appeal to Authority" as your basis for proving a point then you should know when you are proven wrong (yet again) you get it spiked back in your face.
You tried to play Sparky Professor with your economics Total Cost of Ownership ploy. It didn't work. live by claiming an Economics Degree trumps fact, Die by it.
Yeah, you’re right, as it’s so obvious that he’s offended at your education. That’s what little people like him do.
And in regards to him thinking that everyone in the overall market is supposed to be like him and go for used stuff, buy cheap product (i.e., low value product), things that don’t work as well as better product - you’re right. He thinks that the overall market should be like him ... and if not “they’ve all been tricked”! ... LOL ...
Some people just don’t deserve to live in a modern technological society with all its benefits ... they belong in the 1850s or thereabouts ... :-) ...
