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

哪些东西明显价格虚高,人们却还乐意买?

Pretty much anything having to do with the wedding industry is exorbitantly expensive. I couldn't believe the prices when being quoted for the venue, cake, photographer, the church, dresses and tuxedos, the rings, the Fucking props, etc. Fucking absurd that people are willing to go into massive debt for a wedding.

基本上一切和婚礼行业相关的东西都贵的离谱。我简直不敢相信现场、蛋糕,摄影师、教堂、婚纱和晚礼服、戒指、他妈的假花,要花那么多的钱。人们乐意为了一场婚礼欠下大规模的债务,简直他妈是疯了。

Struggling with the same thing right now.

我现在就在被这玩意儿折磨。


We're looking to do a super tiny ceremony, followed by a family party. I'm struggling to find a photographer who has packages that AREN'T a Fuckton of photos in different poses and configurations, photos and video of a whole ceremony, etc. We want some shots of the ceremony, and some candids of the after party. Nothing crazy.

我们本来打算做一个非常小规模的庆典,然后是家庭聚会。我根本找不到一个不会从各种角度和设置拍摄一大堆的照片,把一整场庆典都用视频和照片记录下来的摄影师。我们只是想随便照两张照片,以及婚礼之后派对上的一点直拍而已。不至于那么疯狂。


But there's also probably a ton of things that make event photography harder than I think it is, so I'm in a weird position. I don't want to be sold more than what we want/need, but I also don't want to be an unreasonable asshole trying to tell someone how to do their job.

但是或许也有很多的东西让摄影比我想象中的要困难很多。所以我现在的定位很尴尬。我不想买自己不需要的东西,但是我也不想当一个不可理喻的啥比,指导别人怎么干活。

Retired wedding photographer here. Often the charges are so high because weddings are a one time deal, there is no redo, there is no losing photos, the processes to manage data integrity and cost of equipment needs to be covered across multiple weddings. I never lost a Bride's photos and thank goodness. Also at the high end, good photographers are in high demand often booked out years in advance. A lot of hours go in behind the scenes. Taking photos is about 5% of the job. Good wedding photographers don't get to have bad days. Having said that, I feel for you. Managing a budget for a wedding can be a complete nightmare.

我是退休的婚庆摄影师。通常来说收费很高都是因为婚礼只有一次,不可能重来,因此不允许拍丢照片,保证数据完整和设备的成本需要通过多场婚礼来收回。我这辈子从没弄丢过哪个新娘的照片,谢天谢地。而且在高端场合,好的摄影师通常都会很抢手,需要提前几年预约。幕后要花很长的时间。拍照片可能只占这份工作的5%。好的婚庆摄影师永远不会吃不饱饭。但话虽如此,我也能理解你。为婚礼节约开支确实是个噩梦。

Disneyland tickets, they keep going up and the parks are always crowded!

迪士尼乐园的票价。一直往上涨,但是乐园里总是挤满了人!


CEWriter
And from what my avid Disney fan friend told me, the prices are rising, but they are taking away any perks for staying on location and everything. I've never gone, but to me, it just sounds more stressful to go than fun.

而且据我的深度迪士尼粉丝对我说,不仅价格在往上涨,而且他们在移除一切值得你呆在一个地方不动的东西。我自己从没去过,但是对我来说,听起来去迪士尼乐园比起快乐更像是一件很有压力的事情。

I was at work once at a meeting and it devolved into the other three guys all talking their strategies for going to Disney with their kids, from when to get tickets, the fast passes, food, everything. It just sounded exhausting.

我曾经在工作的时候和别人开会,最后会议变成了剩下三个男的在讨论自己带着孩子去迪士尼玩的战略。从什么时候买票,到快速通道,食物,等等。听起来累得要死。

Right now? Cars, at least in my area. Brand new cars are few and far between. And its not unusual to see used cars with prices 10k to 12k above what the price was a year and a half ago. Its insane.

现在吗?车子吧,至少我这边是这样。全新的汽车基本没有。而且二手车卖出比一年半之前还高一万、一万二的价格,也并不罕见。简直疯了。

My newish car is somehow worth more now than when we bought it 3 years ago?!? Make it make sense.

我九成新的车现在怎么比我们三年前刚买的时候还贵?搞不懂啊。


JavaRuby2000
I bought my car from Mazda in 2020. They phoned me 12 months later and offered to buy it back for what I bought it for new. They then phoned another few months later and offered to stick another few grand on top.

我2020年买了一辆马自达。12个月之后他们给我打电话,说愿意按照我新买时的价钱收购。然后过了几个月他们又打了个电话过来,问我愿不愿意再往上加几千。

Real estate. Everything to do with real estate.

房地产,一切和房地产有关的东西。

yeah, it's a nightmare, and it's this bizarre universe because if you own something already, you basically have seen its value inflate, but if you don't, then it's become all the more impossible to buy.

没错,简直是噩梦。而且诡异的是如果你已经拥有这个东西了,那么你基本上已经见过它的价值上涨的时候了,但是如果你没有的话,那么你只会越来越没有买的可能。

Printer ink

打印机的墨

2 years ago I bought a color laser printer instead. ~750 pages later my starter black toner is about half, and the colors are about 1/3 gone. Well worth the high price tag to replace the toners.

两年前我买了个彩色激光打印机。打了750张纸左右,我随机附赠的黑色墨盒用了快一半,彩色用了三分之一左右。很值得换墨盒的高价。


DekeKneePulls
I also bought a laser printer last fall, I've printed nearly 1000 pages since then and the toner is still at 95% lol

我去年秋天也买了个激光打印机。我打了将近1000页的纸,但盒里还有95%的墨哈哈哈


Decertilation
I got a $600 printer for free, doesn't have toner cartridges in it. Not really sure what to do with it considering spending $400 on proprietary toner sounds like a bad time.

我白嫖了个600美元的打印机。里面没有墨盒。不太清楚该怎么办,因为花400美元买个墨盒好像不太划算。


C-H-Y-P
How hasn’t someone figured out how to printer ink cheaper?

为什么还没有人研究明白怎么让打印机的墨更便宜?


terra_ray
People did with finding ways to refill them or companies creating “compatible” cartridges. Then manufacturers fired back by installing a chip reader in the printers and requiring cartridges to have a compatible chip.

人们研究明白了,或者是重新灌墨,或者是有公司制造“可兼容”的墨盒。然后打印机的生产商就反击了,往打印机里放了个芯片阅读器,要求墨盒里面也装一个兼容的芯片才行。


Then the Great Chip Crisis because of Covid meant that companies would lose out on selling ink altogether, so then they either created firmware upxes or created tutorials for customers to defeat the mechanism.

然后新冠导致的芯片危机就来了,公司可能要完全失去卖墨的业务了,于是他们要么进行固件升级,要么教消费者怎么把自己弄的这个机制关掉。
