ARC Ref 5se inferior to LS28?

Face it - most of us are trickle downers!

There are not a few people that will buy something that costs 50K who would not touch exact same  item were it priced at 25K

Do you have anything that supports this claim?

There are many mistaken notions about wealth and wealthy people. The researcher Thomas J. Stanley did some of the groundbreaking work in this area, and his data certainly conflicts with your claim.

Seen it happen a hundred times on everything from autos to audio ,watches to rings , shoes to suits .
So has everybody else who pays attention .
That is not written in stone is why I said "not a few" which is not everyone .

I pay attention, schubert ... I pay plenty of attention. So I don’t know who you refer to when you reference "everybody."

I trust Thomas J. Stanley’s hard data much more than your solitary claim. But, feel free to share some of your data with all of us here and maybe I’ll take you seriously. I'd surely like to see your data about $50,000 suits and shoes!

As I said, there are many mistaken notions about wealth. Researcher Stanley admits he harbored them, too ... until he did the actual research!

Of course there are humble rich like Buffet and ego-manics who need gold plated bathrooms , so elementary it doesn't need saying .
You need not take me seriously .
