1. What's NOT an assumption we usually make about costly products and services?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

I would assume the correct answer would be B. This is because when you go to a store you typically assume the higher cost item is of higher quality then the lower cost item. For example: One may buy a yeti cooler over an igloo cooler because the very high price tag makes them feel as if the cooler is just that much better then the competitor. If correct please mark brainliest.
