Peepur go for LV and pay 20X more because of the image. Status symbol. The company spent millions on advertisement to create the branding, the image. You pay for that.
Same for all snob's stuff including iPhone, Rolex, Sketchers etc
Quality wise they do give it to you but it's still overpriced. You can get good quality for much less if you don't care about image.
If you rise above the folly of self deception, that your sense of self worth and what you think others will think about you based on the brand of the bag you carry, then you are truly wise.
Front part again, due to expenses spend on Marketing team. Luxury brands, Apple their ad you see is Totally different from other commerical ad you see on tv etc. In the sense their marketing team hire is top advertising firm create the ads etc.
Hire good director etc. Of course come luxury brands , the ambassor etc usually are top celebrity known world wide.
Than come Fashion show, top models wearing it. This is why people say is about " Branding "
You have to see the Difference when come " Branding " sometimes.
Our crap Secret lab do managed to success in fact. They copy how Luxury brands , Apple do their marketing.
Secret Lab go for E sport famous gamers, Famous Youtubers gamers, and Well known influence to promote their gaming chair.
But come quality is CRAP , just " rebrand it make it like atas " from China.
But come luxury branded stuffs is totally league ok, Luxury brands , is really Quality there. Why I know so much because my mum use to sew clothes ones . She told me now you see those FB seller selling those cheap clothes from China , Thailand is anyhow one that why is cheap. The sewing is bad. This is why those cheap clothes after a while very fast spoil.
Unlike Luxury clothes. At least Quality is there. The sewing part is different. My mum told me luxury brands they use a Special sewing machine to sew. Sometimes you happen to see sales from Luxury clothings , is either they want to clear stocks the old series one or some the sewing part is not perfect.
Sometimes come Luxury clothes, items have to see which company , which brand one. Some is trying to sneak in as it is Luxury but is crap , just like SecretLab gaming chair.
