obviously. It actually went up in price

Are they still selling the old model?  If so they were probably trying the old expresso machine move.

 

At least I think it was an expresso machine.  Either way, they sold the things for like 400 dollars.  Sold none of them.

Then they released a premium model for 600 dollars... and none of them really sold....

but the 400 dollar model suddenly started flying off the shelves.

Because look at the great deal!

interesting concept

Yeah, basically the theory is... Nobody knows what an expresso machine out by itself is worth.  Since at the time it was the only home expresso machine ever...

 

but with a second one you set an expectation of price.

It works best with three models in fact.

sneaky. I love this type of persuasion psychology. Thinks like group mentality, conformity, and alignment modification are very interesting subjects.
