He&#8217;d naturally object. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What about the reverse? <br>Suppose <br>your husband wants a Z1000R. *The price has gotten crazy lately, <br>but by a stroke of fate, an acquaintance offers to sell one for 3 million yen due to an urgent need for funds. <br>When he consults his wife about the purchase, she doesn&#8217;t know the bike or its value and has no interest. She&#8217;d naturally withhold her approval. <br>This is the result of differing interests and preferences, with mismatched weights and scales. <br>There&#8217;s a wall that market prices can&#8217;t overcome, isn&#8217;t there? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With goods, it&#8217;s easier to judge and easier to participate based on factors like &#8220;the price is lower than market,&#8221; &#8220;high rarity,&#8221; and &#8220;high value.&#8221; <br>Not everyone is intimately familiar with market prices for &#8220;HIGH\/LOW.&#8221; <br>When discussing price in relation to people, I prefer to use vague, soft language <br>like &#8220;that&#8217;s quite reasonable, isn&#8217;t it?&#8221; <br><br>What about the scale&#8217;s movement with services? <br>This time it&#8217;s more complex, and I think the subjective element ends up occupying almost the entire proportion. I&#8217;ll come back to this when I think of more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether it&#8217;s a service or a purchase, it doesn&#8217;t matter.
