''Morning NF,
I''m curious as to what makes a brand in general (yes, I was one of those kids). I''d love to hear your opinion, whether or not it involves Leon.

Good one, Deelight! Poor DF, we''re playing semantics with him.
Top of the morning to you too! Thanks for adding an option. Everyone else, please feel free to do so.Date: 11/23/2008 10:06:18 AM

Harriet, my reason for a successful brand is not one of your listed choices, but a HUGE reason for such recognition (to me) would be quality control and consistency of such quality!

to respond to DF, i think many PS''rs would be able to tell the difference between the benchwork on a Leon and others.
The latter. Thanks!Date: 11/23/2008 10:10:48 AM

As I said before I think to have something be a brand it''s a number of things. Now is your question why I would buy a brand over a non-brand? Or how does something get elevated to a brand status?

I think its probably a case of wind them up and watch them go. I think the comments were unneccesary and written to irritate posters. I don''t like that at all.Date: 11/23/2008 9:54:59 AM

I feel I have no reason to clarify what you may have misunderstood. ThanksDate: 11/23/2008 9:09:36 AM

The disagreement wasn''t necessarily in your point (which may be true in some cases) but more in the dismissive, superior attitude shown in your vocabulary choice regarding some PS members (i.e. the ones who are not ''real''). Please feel free to respond to my questions and the other questions posed to you in that thread to clarify any misunderstanding that may have occurred.Date: 11/23/2008 8:36:54 AM

I don''t see any disagreement going on there..
I think THAT thread contains posts that try to get this point across..
People (in general) can''t look at a ring and determine the maker of the ring (whether it be Leon, Tiffany, Cartier, or an E-bay Vendor). Not while on a finger anyway. YES..some PS''ers could remove it from the finger and closely inspect it..then determine. MY post was simply saying, one could save a whole lot of money getting the same look with a non-designer ring. PERIOD! Some readers over analyze, and dig too deep for something that just isn''t there.
Apologies, Harriet, for the off-topic post in your thread. Won''t happen again.
