Pricing feels too high for some
Some residents feel the pricing is unreasonably high for the items offered.
A smaller group of reviewers directly calls out the pricing as expensive or outrageous. One reviewer also says items feel overpriced compared with buying new elsewhere, while another gives a very negative take on value. These comments stand out against many positive price/value mentions in other reviews, so impressions on cost appear mixed.
