I think you've pretty much established the fact that you do not value the shirts at their sticker price.

It's an honest belief the the pricing dictated the classification of these as "fashion", not the other way around.

Maybe, but I still know Folger's Crystals coffee when I taste it.

But do you drink it? I get a lot of grief from people in my workplace because I pay more than $2 for my morning coffee. They say that they can't taste the difference. I sure can.

I'll bet they think that espresso prices are a "sick joke".

But I get really really bored hearing them rib me.

I know my taste is better than theirs.

Yeah, but what difference does that make when you won't spring for Peets anyway?

You can always wait for stuff to go on sale, but it might not be around if you wait. I got the shirt I bought in NYC for about $35.
