    Would a company like that go out of business from not selling the same shit to people over and over?

        If I made a toaster that costs $50 but every 5 years you replace the coil for $5.

        Or one that costs $20 but you need to replace every 5 years.

        You can imagine people going for the 2nd one.

          Shit I was thinking more fridge or washing machine, things that costs thousands. I had 3 microwaves at one point in my life. Those I’m fine just buying again.
