Domino's pizza anyone???

you are the only person i have ever seen that is trying to say Macs are not of high quality?

Sorry for targeting you, but could you explain why you think it's rewarding to have a structured, detailed debate about the price of pizza? Don't you think that's a waste of time and energy?

OOOH, could you quote me where I said that?

My actual argument is simply that Domino's is poor value for money; that better pizza can be purchased at a cheaper price from an independent takeaway, and the reason it is popular is not because it is comparatively better quality, but is because it is a well-known and heavily advertised brand and because people are too lazy to find a better alternative or simply unaware that they exist. This is a well-known phenonenon, and the reason that franchising works so well. Take a normal coffee shop, double the prices and skimp on the quality, but stick a starbucks sign on it and sales will increase rather than decrease, simply because its a known brand and the majority of consumers are, frankly, idiots.

C'mon, you're studying business. Surely you've studied the dynamics behind marketing, franchising, brand awareness, that kind of thing? And yet you fall into the exact same trap yourself when discussing Domino's.

The time you two have spent arguing could surely be better spent eating pizza?

Well, it was mostly about the quality

One fool said people prefer pizza's from independant places, provided no evidence at all and continues to ignore that, as well as ignoring the popularity of the business and fact it is chosen over other similar ones.

The same perosn who is also trying to claim that Apple Mac's aren't of a high quality

When a person is simply so foolish as to say things such as this, he needs to be told right (:

I would become extremely fat if I spent as much time eating as I spend arguing with idiots.

Except... I didn't say either of those things. So either you're a liar, or you're too stupid to tell the difference between that and what I actually said.

'Popularity is so often defined by habit and marketing strategy, not by product quality. Domino's is one of the ultimate examples of this, along with Apple computers
'
To shorten it - Dominoes is popular because of marketing and consumer habits, not quality. Just like Apple.
Problem?

Poor value for money =/= low quality.

Nowhere have i stated it is good value for money, at all, so i fail to see why that whole paragraph is even there and simply no need to respond to it tbh.

Hehe, you are so funny

''Popularity is so often defined by habit and marketing strategy, not by product quality. Domino's is one of the ultimate examples of this, along with Apple computers'

'Yes it is well known to be low quality pizza. It gets destroyed in every blind taste test I have read about. ' - when talking about dominoes against independent places.
People picking something over dominoes = people preferring it. So uh, ye you did say it ;D

I see you are not atually debating people, you are just insulting them, at least on the plus side youv got beyond "embarrasing", and your not at the grammer nazi level yet.

What you quoted has no insult in it? xD Confused.

But anyway.. i'm.. glad you are back? :P

If you can't tell the difference between saying "the popularity of product x is determined more by marketing than quality" and "product x is low quality"., then I genuinely fear for your degree results. Consumers are willing to pay more for a Mac than a PC of equivalent quality because it has been extremely well marketed. Do you deny this?

Success in a blind taste test is not the same thing as popularity. blind taste tests indicate high quality, but as I mentioned above, there are many more factors in popularity than simply product quality. Again, I would have thought this obvious.
