I completely understand what you are saying. Sales are the best measurable and objective way we have of defining quality or value, I don't disagree with that at all.  I am saying that sales are not the ABSOLUTE measure of quality and can't be otherwise things like rentals and the used market wouldn't exist. 

If things that sell the best have the highest quality then why would anyone want anything else?  Why would anyone return this object of the highest quality or value?  Maybe unless quality and value was different for different people. Sales are the best way we have of measuring it but not the absolute end all be all. That depends upon the consumer and his or her experience and expectations.  Just because more people have a set of expectations or enjoy a particular type of experience doesn't make them any higher quality or value just more accessible, unless of course you are a company trying to make money in which case the largest amount possible is the best as the business wants great sales,  but we aren't, we are people discussing a hobby.
