They seem to be available for immediate delivery here:

I think they'd sell more if the quality was greater and the price was lower.

That goes for every single product in the world ;-)


Not exactly. If lambourghini's were the same price as a normal car then they'd sell less, you can't park them anywhere, hard to drive, they catch fire & once all the plebs have them then why would the rich buy one.

The problems with these cases is well documented and don't support the premium price.

LOL, I guarantee any lost sales because of lack of scarcity would be more than made up by increased sales due to better affordability.

Diesel car sales have slumped because some manufacturers cheated on a test, (which most people knew they were doing to some degree anyway). How do you think people would react to:

The fuel consumption, losing your drivers license in about a week due to speeding tickets, not being able to park your car anywhere, your car being keyed because your neighbours were sick of the noise.

If you could buy one for 20k then my desire to own one would instantly evaporate.

"For example, in the 1990s when "fashion" jeans became popular, one retailer found that he could sell more when he raised the price."

"A corollary of the Veblen effect (where goods are desired for being over-priced) is that a decrease of their price decreases their demand."
