    or people who just don’t need to care about saving $10 or $20

        Mate I can promise you that the people splurging $10 on a accessory cable aren’t the rich people we need to be worried about. And let’s not act like Android doesn’t have its fair share of overpriced phones and cables in the market, either.

        fuck people for not caring much about $10? i wouldn’t even consider that being rich. do you consider everyone in the middle class as obscenely rich? the average person out of their teens and 20s can waste $10 without caring.

          Not caring about spending $10 when you could spend $2 is being too rich to care. Over half of America lives paycheck-to-paycheck.

            included in the group that lives paycheck-to-paycheck are plenty of people making six figures.

            what you’re also ignoring is stuff like time cost. for a certain person, the time spent to find and research a reliable alternative at a lower price point might be worth more than $10 or $20.
