All luxury products works that way

Yeah because luxury doesnt mean quality, pretty sure I could get a custom leather coat from some Amish dude out by Salmon Idaho thatd blow away any luxury leather.

Exactly, if you take off the brand logo of an item, its price would drop significantly.

The item itself is secondary, what's important is the status it passes to other people. That's why we find those ridiculous stuff with Supreme brand

This comment makes me want to drive out to Salmon Idaho and buy a custom leather coat.
