This is, of course, bullshit.

Of course there are cases where people are conned into paying too much
for things : but quality costs money. And the market is an unforgiving
place. Its how markets work.

The old adage "you get what you pay for" has never been truer.

Unfortunately it seems many of you here don't actually have a clue about
the time, effort and hence costs involved in designing, implementing and
releasing quality SW.

There's another old saying - Time Is Money. And it is. Whichever way you
wish to cut it.
