It’s a typical phenomenon that the very branded items, although being costlier, are more popular a choice for consumers compared to demand for the items of goods in the local market. What is the reason? One is obviously the quality followed by a better after sale service. The difference of the cost between the two is at times very high. As I have seen very often in Mumbai, a briefcase, I mean a branded one, is available in the road side show room against the price tag of Rs.2500/, the same can be purchased from the vendor just sitting in the front of the show room for as cheap a price as Rs.1000/ with only a difference of the look –the one kept in air conditioned show room glitteringly shines much better than the one available through the vendor or other smaller shops locally. What looks to be very surprising is that despite this much gap between the two types of price tags, demand for costly brands is bigger. The possible reason behind this is that with developmental growth in the country, there is no dearth of the people who have grown much bigger wealth wise. Then there is no dearth of black money too, it is there in graver proportions but is available in abundance. This is the real cause why costlier items of goods are given more preference by the people compared to the items with smaller price tag. It is the black money that contributes much making rich people more rich, and the poorer ones further remaining still poor.

It is all because of black money in India.
yes. It is all the black money playing the game.
SIR, I THINK PEOPLE PREFER BRANDED ITEMS AS THEY APPARENTLY HAVE MORE CREDIBILITY THAN THE NON-BRANDED ONES. IT NEED NOT BE NECESSARILY TRUE BUT OF COURSE IT SPARE THE PERSON FROM THE APPREHENSIONS OF BUYING A NON-BRANDED ITEM. ALSO, IT GIVES ONE SOME KIND OF SATISFACTION TO BE USING A KNOWN AND POPULAR BRAND. SOMEHOW, SOMETIMES PEOPLE FEEL THEIR OWN CREDIBILITY RISING USING CREDIBLE BRANDS. BRANDED ITEMS,AS YOU HAVE VERY RIGHTLY POINTED OUT, ARE NO DOUBT VERY EXPENSIVE FOR SIMPLE REASONS THAT THEY HAVE VERY GOOD QUALITY, THEY HAVE THEIR OWN DESIGNS AND THEY PAY THE COST FOR ADVERTISING, PROMOTING AND MARKETING THEIR BRANDS. WE PAY FOR THE QUALITY NOT THE QUANTITY.
Branded items are supposed to be more reliable.
Brabded items are no doubt costly but it is the quality that matters much.
