I agree. That is what I was trying to say. Low cost and budget does not have to equal poor design, even if the quality isn't so great.
Target actually now have a pair of shoes that almost look okay, or at least better than the Herman Munster shoes they usually sell. They are made of plastic-like leather, but I bet with some polishing tricks you could make them look decent. I think
these were the ones I look at, but I remember looking a bit better in person.
All I am saying is that there is no reason a human being should be allowed to walk into a store, and walk out with an olive toothbrush holder that has palm trees all over it.
The only way to ensure that it does not happen it to start at the beginning, which would be with the designer; and the place where they should have learned to never design something like that in the first place.
Some people might think that this is all a matter of an opinion, but I think you have the draw the line somewhere; or else you end up in the position we are currently in.
People will buy what is available to them, no matter what it is. If you take options away from them, they will buy the next option in line because most people do not have any idea what they actually want to begin with.
Americans like one-stop shopping -- they love superstores -- they are the same people who go to the Home Depot to remodel their homes. These people are big retarded adults who will buy any garbage that is thrown in front of them -- why not make it nicer so they will stop pooring up the rest of the world?
From my experiences, some of these people even appreciate some unexpected help and learning that what is being fed to them is complete junk.
It could be very simple.
