Persuant to the above article: when you have enjoyed or become used to some object, when the time comes to get rid of it you also want it to go to someone who is also going to enjoy it or appreciate it. The trend of pricing or ‘adoption transferrence’ Will either cause the pricing of the object to be higher, or a more selective market/audience will be chosen. I’ve sold over 10,000 items in my lifetime, as I used to regularly attend flea markets and the like with a van load of products of various types, and emotional attachments were present on some sales. When a client approached that you felt is not suitable for the item you care for, you will make less of an effort to sell, in some cases actively discouraging the client, because you feel that attachment.
