Would you pay more for a flight ...?   Yes.  IF it meant ...safely 

should I pay more to the fast guy, or the guy who takes a while?    Yes.  If the guy that takes awhile does a good job of it when the fast guy doesn't.

Does pizza cost more if it's here in 31 minutes or MORE?    Yes.   And I frequently do pay more and wait a bit longer .... It's FAR better

I don't yet sew leather by machine, since I have no space for a big sewing machine.

While it seems to be inadvertent and incidental, you have managed to make my main point   You compare the finished product - "safely", "good job" or "doesn't", and "FAR better" - and determine price paid based on the quality of what you're getting.

Which is exactly what I do.  I will pay more for something that is "FAR better", but not for something that is the SAME , but TOOK LONGER.  Or because it came with a wonderful story about how the maker works nine jobs, uphill both ways ....

some sew fast - some sew slow - some sell items - some don`t. Some have big ones - some have smaller ones... Machines I mean... or Pizzas

Amen 2.0

Jeff - you are spot on - doesn't make a difference how a product is made, if the quality is poor, it is not acceptable.  There are well made mass-produced items as well as hand made items.  On the flip side, there are also very poor quality mass-produced and hand made items.   When I buy something I don't particularly care how it was made or how long it took to make, as long as the quality is acceptable and it meets my expectations!
