help me understand this

I am updating my bath and kitchen in order to put my house on the market.. the prices of decent looking vanity light is INSANE

I bought a steel gas range for 550 and steel fridge for around 700 ..and any vanity light that is like is priced above $90 ( there are ones for about 20-30 -- which are no more than a plate with a bulb holder)


A fridge is vastly more complicated piece of equipment, both in terms of engineering and raw material , compared to a lamp.

why the F*** should lamps be priced at $200 .... and why do all $50 lamps look so crappy ...


I just don't get it.
