Yeah - I thought his examples were actually not very good. The other one is water - you pay a certain amount of money for bottled water (which presumably doesn't have the crappy lead / metals from the pipes, and ideally will store well, and be available in a disaster, etc...) - but you pay less when you fill up your water containers at the store, for water of roughly the same quality.
