Its just like everything in life, the more expensive the better it is or thats how most people perceive things. Why buy a Rolex watch when you can get a nice Timex at Target for $30, they both tell time. Why buy a Mercedes Benz to get to work when you can get around in a Toyota Corolla, they'll both get you from point a to point b so why spend the extra money etc etc. Everything you buy has its high end and low end, its all a matter of what you can afford and what your looking for. You pay for quality and materials when your buying high end products.
