Some things are always expensive because people really want them. It's like when you're the only one who wants a certain toy, the store can charge more money for it because no one else is buying it. If everyone wanted the same toy, the price might go down. But if only a few people care about something special, it stays expensive.
Examples
- A toy that only a few kids want stays expensive in the store.
- A designer bag keeps getting more expensive even when new ones are made every year.
- A rare chocolate bar is sold at a high price because not many people can get it.
