What’s something that’s clearly overpriced yet people still buy?

Ryanair Zindabaad :smokin:

If only their pilots knew how to land a plane without the passengers having a concussion. A small price to pay for a £7.99 flight from Gatwick to Manchester International.

My experience with "low cost" airlines has been that they sell most of their tickets at or near regular rates. They ripoff with fee too. Their cheapest tickets have so many limitations that only very few regular passengers would find them useful. Lately though prices on long haul international flights have almost doubled.

Fuel.

H2R is an engine based on a supercharger and an aluminum sealed intake that costs 1/4th of what they’re charging. The fact it beat the Hayabusa’s fastest world record was enough to make it a marvel of sorts, and that is pretty much why it costs as much as it does when technically speaking it just isn’t worth as much. All they basically did was add a supercharger on a liter engine, no magic

R8 or the M8 are personal favorites

I live in Pakistan, and the lowest I could fetch a basic disc version of a PS5 was around $900. The VR and the extras came later

The H2R is a barely street legal track monster. It’s carbon construction is one of a kind. I’m not too big on bikes but based on what I’ve read, its the 2-wheeled equivalent of a Porsche 911 GT3 RS, which is high praise in my books. The Hayabusa is an incredible machine no doubt, but around a track or a good b-road, the H2R would be considerably faster.

Just my opinion.

Cool. I thought you were talking about these 2 cars being OP.

Scalpers really did a number on the PS5 didn’t they? Lol. I’ve been a PlayStation guy since 1997, but was forced to switch to an Xbox as they were relatively more readily available at MSRP.

I totally get what you’re saying here. My point is that you practically won’t like paying for the overpriced carbon fiber frame or the supercharger when a Hayabusa, or even a CBR900rr/1000rr with a custom supercharger overtakes your wobbling precious jewel when you least expect them to

The H2R is basic engineering, just for it to seem a bang for your buck when in engineering terms it’s anything but it. I bet you have Suzuki wondering why they were slow to catch up on the game Kawasaki destroyed them with after half and some decade of their fastest world record. Kawasaki switched from Aluminum to carbon fiber for power to weight gains, and then engineering a super lightweight 1000cc engine with a supercharger to beat a 1300cc giant

I’d still feel way more safe driving a Hayabusa at the top of its lungs than an H2R, the heartier the frame weight the more control you have of the machine

My .2cents

Overpriced still considering the custom taxes here

Always been a Sony fan for some reason

Cooked food

In London - they are mainly offered from Luton or Stanstead airports - to get to here cab fares are more than £50 and you have to wake up early in the morning like 3

I’d prefer a overpriced mutton cooked brain masala

Second comes mutton ribs

Third be steaks :blush:

Cheap airline tickets in Europe are probably based on marginal cost analysis basis

Halal meats. Double the price of meat at the regular grocery stores (usa)

Did I ever mention ME? :p

Yeah! I don’t understand why these muzlamic folks pay a premium for halal pork sausages, like why not buy regular pork sausages instead? right? RIGHTT?

This is one thing that I will absolutely miss about living in the Middle East. Everything here is halal and of exceptionally high quality.

more expensive then soda/drinks

Costco now has a huge selection of halal meat, same price as regular meat. I typically buy my meat at their business centre. Desi store charged me 16 dollars per Kg. Costco is 9.99
I don’t trust desi butchers. They have loads of chicken wings, goat, lamb etc. I don’t really care about a certain way of killing, however my wife is more comfortable with halal.

Desi butchers don’t age the meat, aging is necessary to make meat tender. When an animal is killed, rigor mortis sets in. Most quality meats are aged 21 days. If an animal is throat slit, it goes thru a lot of pain, modern way of halal is more humane.

Lol. As predicted, the sheer definition of a runmureed!

Never seen a shaved scrotum that looked like somebody’s pretty face? I has. Do ask where

So, you said Sam is drop dead gorgeous, in other terms a proper bombshell of sorts. An entire work of art. Must it however look odd if the curious in me asked to see pics of the two wives to be able to gauge the red chilli hotness levels we be dealing with here?​

Only in depraved misogynists use the term Zaan Mureed, here in civilised world women are the leaders of households and on average women are doing a lot better than men, In universities Female/Male ratio is 60;40. Women are more socially intelligent and make better decisions regarding the values and family.

I find it the weakest males with twigs for limbs, unable merely to stand up straight with a good posture are so worried about male dominance! Aren’t you supposed to be superior where you provide and protect? With country racing to bankruptcy, Taliban taunting to defeat like in 71…where is the provide and protect?

Mashallah, God blessed me with 2 most amazing wives.

Harris benches 260 and yet he makes breakfast for Nicole..women are the privileged gender here. They have no obligation to men and just their companionship is a reward. Most high value men take care of their ladies.

Smh, disgusted. Although trash-talk takes up an ample proportion of your agenda here , the least you should have is basic etiquette to watch your language in a pre-dominantly female fora [and world].
