In a general sense, yeah, but this is marketing that's targeting a specific demographic, such that that demographic needs to do more research in order to avoid being ripped off. That's not cool.


No, they target specific demographics all the time. Again, it's a marketing thing.

Apple markets to people who don't know shit about computers

Beats (which I suppose is also apple) targets people who don't know anything about sound quality

Etc. etc.

You act like there aren't ridiculous ad campaigns and products that target the male demographic and charge them higher prices as a result.

Like, it's all demographic targeting. That's the point. They do it because it works. If customers are dumb enough to get duped by terrible marketing campaigns, then that's really their own problem.

If you don't like buying Vidal Sassoon whatever shampoo with extra volume agent, then don't. Buy V05 or Head and Shoulders like every other dude in the world.
