Customers will pay more than you think. But it only pays off if you get it right (3/3)

Emotional Purchase Value – Sentimental value or emotional attachment to a product can alter product values significantly. Collectors’ items or products ending production can have significant price fluctuations. Selling winning team t-shirts and souvenirs will need to be timed to match the event. Experience from prior seasons can give some insight, but during the season, how many price points were tested?
