Friends, I am talking in general. If you go and buy something then what will be your concern, about the Quality or Quantity? because if the product is of good quality then almost all the time Quantity will be less. I came across with such kind of situations where i went to a hotel there it was really good quality maintained by them. But the problem is i didn't get that much of quantity where actually i get satisfied from that. Like that there will so many things are around where normally both Quality and Quantity won't match. Have you experienced such things in your life? which one you look for Quality or Quantity?

I always look for quality in every product that I buy. I feel that my money would be well spent in one quality product than buying a lot of low-quality product just to have a satisfactory result. Buying too many products of the same low quality is a big no-no for me. It's just wasting precious money. I disagree that a quality product should be less than in number while low quality is in abundance. The test of a quality product is how much it delivers and gives its users some satisfactory standards. That is the reason why people stand by their products for a long time - becuase they know the quality of the product is maintained and still delivers good service.

I too give preference to the quality of the product rather than the quantity. But i don't know why the people always look for less price products but people don't know why they won't understand that less price product always opt for less quality compare to the more price products.

Whenever I buy a commodity which is manufactured by a limited company and sold throughout the country -- quality is same wherever u buy -- Sony TV if u buy ix X shop it is the same as sony tv in Y shop. I will try to find out in which shop they offer more discount and then buy. Regarding food you can have sweets at Rs.1000 per kilo and Rs.100 per kilo and Rs.300 per kilo depending on the place/shop u buy. I take Rs.300 quality and this is based on financial position at the time. If I had less money I will be happy with Rs,100 quality also.

Ravi i will agree that each product have their own values according to their quality. But don't you feel that there will a lot of difference in quality when you compare with the 1000 RS product with the 100 RS product.

I like to buy vegan food and I go for quality rather than quantity. I like to have the best fruit and vegetables and they will always be of excellent quality. I like to buy classic clothing for myself from cheap shops. For my children I like to buy medium to high quality clothing. My son is disabled so for him I need some specialized clothing from a company that sells clothes for disabled people. I am very keen on traveling and I like to stay in locally owned guest houses and when I get the chance unusual accommodation. It has to be in my price range.

But some times if you buy a quality product also it won't have that much of quantity. Especially in our country that is in India if you buy a good quality product then 95% that product quantity will be comparetively less than the other product types.

most of the time, i look for quality... but sometimes i tend to sacrifice that for quantity depending on the situation.... but as i've said, i generally look for quality. it would be nice though to find something balanced....sometimes things doesn't necessarily have to be the best in quality, but is good enough for me to benefit from it, and if it offers the quantity i need too, then i'd be satisfied.

I will give preference for both. Because if there is a quality then sure i am willing to take that product but it should be more quantity. Without Quality if there is only quantity then its of no use. I really hate the service given by the government.

Quality is very important.See if we go to market we would like to purchase good ones not the rotten apples.One or two if are good then we can pay and eat, So many of apples all spoiled what satisfaction comes to pay and eat such things. Quality of friends is also very important., what does it make sense of having hundreds of friends when one also is not having good qualities or is helpful to u or sharing as ur good friend. Why to have large number of children , why cant a one and only Mahatma Gandhi or a Mother Teresa.

Yes because if the product is in less quantity then i can adjust with it but it should not be less quality. If it is so then it may cause some other illness and which makes my body to be weaken. So better we should give preference for good quality first then look for quantity.

When it comes to food, medicine, we do look for quality even if they are expensive because no one should really sacrifice their health. Getting sick is far more expensive than avoiding illness. One should be wise about budgeting and getting quality products at a fair price.

Friend, i can agree with you for medicine but when it comes to food then i won't because if the food quality is really really good but it doesn't have more quantity then sure again it won't get the attraction of the customers. Even i won't like it because i eat more food and i want there should be both quality and quantity in food. There is no compromise with that.

My main concern when shopping is that the product did not originate in China. The Chinese have killed countless dogs in America, and sickened their own babies with poisoned milk. They have used poison the make their fish grow faster, and I would not want to eat Chinese fish.Many of their Agricultural products are produced using insecticides that have been outlawed in Canada for decades.

Friend if it is then why the people are still silent in your country? you guys need to get united and oppose the government not to taking care about these things which cause serious illness on you guys. Better you guys need to oppose the system first then they will wake up from that and they will take care of such things.

I'm into quality and not into quantity. A user agreement for example, most user agreements are lengthy that's why most people just select "agree." If you are looking for an article, it is easy to read the short articles that you can find the writers' point of view instead of reading lengthy ones that comes into circle.

I always go for quality and never quantity because I personally believe that quantity without quality is valueless.

I always look for the quality. Quantity is useless if the product you bought is useless as well. Always go for quality, always value your hard earn money.
