    For something that makes absolutely no sense at all, this makes a lot of sense.

          For me:

          Under 100₴ - free

          100₴ - 300₴ - it must be worth it for me to buy it.

          More than 300₴ - i will never finacially recover from this purschase.

            Little different for me:

            $1 - 5 = $5

            $6 - 12 = $10

            $13 - 20 = $20

            $21 - 50 = $50

            $51 - 70 = $100

            >$70 = $1000

            That's basically right.

            $70?

            I could buy a car for that kinda money.

                I just round up to the nearest multiple of 5. Who the hell rounds down when looking at prices?

                      Nothing new tbh. How we subconsciously round off numbers is a big part of super market pricing. Everything with a zero at the end seems bigger. Not only does 19.99 seem much smaller then 20, but even 21.99 seems smaller then 20 at a glance.

                            You just reminded me of a time when $70 felt like nearly unlimited opportunities. Now, $70 means that I might get to buy groceries AND restock on spices.

                              Same, quite a bit of difference to me.

                              $1 - 7 = how many of these are they going to charge? 100+ dollars

                              $8 - 60 = round to nearest $5

                              $61+ = irrelevant collector’s edition

                                no, completely valid, but pricing is a psychological question rather than a math question for some.

                                reason for example products are priced with X.99

                                some people se it as cost X amount, others (like youself) see it as X+1 amount. the 0.99 is the extreme end of the psychology and choosing 8 in the case of peak increases number of people who dont see it at the higher price
