You get what you pay for?! A marketing hype or a reality?

These things may seem inexpensive to you but there are more people who would deem those things EXPENSIVE at any cost.

Totally agree. But when someone posts a comment about which fixture of light to buy or which powerhead to buy, there seems to be numerous post supporting to buy the things with heavier price tag instead of saying "buy whichever suits your need". You shouldn't judge anything based on the price but should ask "does it worth it to pay that much" and thus personal judgement comes. I have experienced it numerous time myself in this forum starting from buying lights to buying skimmer.
