I think you're mistaking quality as a proxy for determining value to the purchaser. It might be low quality, and still absolutely worth $150 to folks who buy it.

Even if you can be 100% objective on quality, the only way to make any kind of sweeping price/quality assessment is to compare it to other things on the market. What do other things in this price range give you? What do similar quality products cost? This is where I see some valuable comparisons actually being made in this context.

I just can't see how this adds to the discussion at all in light of the above. It reads like "this isn't worth $150 to me" and I just think, ok, it's not for you. /shrug
