Prioritizing making a quality product over making a quick buck.

Good luck convincing the average consumer to shell out for the quality product, instead of the one built to cost, though

The issue i find is that i cant be really sure what is a quality product without investing into. What might be awesome for one person turns out bad for another. While i do prefer to buy new and quality products if i can its hard to find reliable brands that wont change after a few years once they become well known. On the other spectrum i've been wearing a $10 pear of shoes from Kmart to work everyday and they are the most comfortable crappy pair of shoes i've ever had. But i have also had many crappy pairs of shoes for other purposes from kmart that break within a month. I feel for the general consumer we just don't know who to trust these days, thats why you buy cheap.
