I apologize if I post many questions, I am new to the hobby and curious. I have seen maybe 2 ads for women saying they are Courtesans and they charge like 5 thousand dollars for a few hours date. They seem to have the same attractive looks as some other reasonably priced providers. Why would someone pay 5 thousand dollars for a Courtesan?
A 600SL Mercedes Benz is a fine automobile; but the intrinsic value of its parts are not worth $100K+. It is the age old game of marketing exclusivity, and selling that exclusivity’s value to those who value it.
Great Answer!
This is one of those questions I hate. (no offense to you personally) Why would anyone buy a Lamborghini if they can get a Toyota for a lot less money? Why would anyone purchase a Rolex if they can get a Timex at a much better deal– and water proof to boot!? I could go on but you get the idea.
People pay what they want to pay for things. Everyone doesn’t live on a budget. Why they do it depends entirely on the proclivities of the person doing the purchasing. You’d have to ask their customers.
