You call it nonsense but you can substantiate your claims with nothing but fowl and grain. Sigh, the quality of of the intelligence of some people here.

Sorry, I do not eat in Hawker Centres much. I apologise that when it comes to food, I generally look for places with air conditioning, so naturally, I referred to Chatterbox's chicken rice. My bad. For someone who seems to be able to pick up the difference between Chatterbox and Hawker Centres...

Boasting behind a pseudonym does nothing for my ego, if that's what you are trying to insinuate. I am just using what I have as an example.

Sure you could. Restaurant in 5 star hotels charge that price. Chatterbox at Mandarin Hotel is one example. People still patronise them. I do all the time. Why? Because we can afford to. Again, another flawed rebuttal. Please try harder.

If I have failed to make an impression, then your multiple replies to my quotes proves otherwise. Please make an effort to understand consumer theory before making foolish statements like that. A Maserati is a superior good, a luxury good. As income rises, so does purchasing power. Now, of...

Again, another member that does not make economic sense. Why would Bill Gates want to pay $99 million for a broken camera? You are insulting the intelligence of one of the greatest minds of this generation.

If the X100 was a dollar, even if it was GBP1, then that's mighty good value for ANY camera. Please my friend, you are not making economic sense again.

Wow, for someone who claims to be able to afford 100 X-100's, your grammar sure sucks. Okay, I agree with you, even if you could afford more than 100 sets, you shouldn't, that just daft. If you are trying to make a point, use an example that makes at least some economic sense, please.

Being well off or not, is not the point. There are Japanese cars that handle better than my Maserati. Some can even go faster than my half million dollar car. Again, that's not the point. I know my Maserati is not the fastest car out there, but I chose to get one. BECAUSE I can afford it. For...

Well, to me it's only $1600. Heck, that's even less than my monthly car loan and I don't have to scrap it after ten years. Poor value or not is really a relative measure of one's disposal income, I guess.

To all of you that complain that the X100 is too expensive: Don't hate the camera cos you guys are too broke to afford it. It's not even half the price of my M9P and D3X. To all of you that complain that the X100 is a fixed lens camera: So what? Just shoot within the camera's zoom range. Don't...
