This article originally appeared in the Consumer Guide magazine and is a Special Editorial called Price or Value. This article was written as a way to reinforce the idea that you really do “get what you pay for”. The main focus of this article is that the price of something is insignificant if it does not have an equal or greater value to the cost. And that the value of a consumer product should be the top priority of the consumer.  It reminds consumers of what they already know...CHEAP does not mean QUALITY!
