Ummm....a little correction here. You won't find Gucci or LV selling any handbags at $300. Starting price points are higher - yes, even for the canvas. LV will make a canvas summer bag - slap on the name of the world you may be in like Portofino, Capri, San Francisco, Puerto Banus, etc - then just call it "limited" and voila! Everyone is clamoring for the bag. Oh yeah and they start at about $1,500. No one blinks.

This is too much...! Go to Ted's Amazon link...then click on the Gucci link within the product description and see where it takes you....serendipity? Or where the margins are?

I am really wondering about the high end part of the Apple Watch strategy. Buyers of that product only get two points of differentiation. An exclusive strap and a gold case. Everything else is functionally identical to the cheapest version. Including the watch face that is on display. This is completely different compared to buying an expensive watch now, which is much more exclusive. Every piece of that watch is different. Not just the strap and case. If Apple can pull this off then good for them, but I don't know how someone spending $10K+ to get gold doesn't come across as having more money than brains, when the $350 device is functionally identical. Good pont, but remember the "I am Rich" app that sold for something like $1000 and just put up one screen? That's why the high end watch will probably be closer to $5000.
