An article, in this case, refers to a manufactured thing or a service which is sold at retail. The expensive item is almost always of higher quality, unless a person has stumbled upon one of the few places where they can really “be taken.” ■ The only thing the customer has to lose in the case of a more expensive item is the little more than the item costs. And, if the cost is pro-rated over the life of the article, that loss rapidly disappears. With a less costly article, the customer can lose both the money invested and the article, as the cheapness of the article advertises its lack of quality. And, with a cheap article, the customer very seldom gets service. There is a basic law of business in the system of free enterprise that demands that the customer pay for the cost of the product plus a variable margin for profit. It can be no other way. The only “bargain” is a quality product that is made well to last a reasonable amount of time. No manufacturer produces a quality product, writes off part of the cost of production and all of the profit, and then passes the savings on to the customer. Items that cost money should not be measured in money alone, but in terms of cost per unit of time. A six dollar item that lasts six months is more expensive than a ten dollar item that lasts a year. If service is taken into consideration, and it certainly should be on a mechanical item, a twenty dollar item that lasts two years can be much more expensive than a thirty dollar item that lasts the same amount of time. Each spring, as the fishing starts, more suckers are taken. Every community has groups of outsiders come in to do a job much cheaper than the local merchants can do it. In most instances, the job is much cheaper in many ways. Adams county is fortunate in having a conscientious group of retailers who have quality merchandise and quality services for sale. If one will compare the outsiders product with the local product, compare the services that accompany the product, and compare the life of the product, it is readily seen that the local product is by far the cheaper. It would not be fair to be completely belligerent to every effort made by outsiders to sell thia market. But, if the price is extremely low, the talk extremely smooth, and the time element extremely urgent, there is a very good chance that the customer will be extremely dissatisfied with the results. * Editorial Writer Today John G.
