The pay part is what people do not want to do. It is sort of the "boots" theory of economics. The poor man buys the boots that cost ten dollars, leak in six months and totally wear out in a year, the rich man buys boots that cost seventy five dollars, never leak and last ten years.
The other problem is that people are paying very high prices for things that will not last because they are trendy rather then paying high prices for things that will last because they are classic and will be wearable and usable twenty years from now.
