I don't think that is very strange at all. I could chose to drive a much more expensive car than I do, but at this time in my life I don't see the value in it. I have many hand-sewn kilts that have cost up to $800 but I own the best tuxedo $400 could buy. Still more than some would be willing to pay, but a lot less than others. I own a pair of $400 English shoes, but I buy my sneakers at Walmart.
Very few of us have the means to always buy the best of everything, so we must pick what is important to us. We go where we perceive the value.
