Sadly it is Youth culture today which revolves around showing off, demanding respect without earning it, bragging, and competing for who's got the biggest, best and most expensive. As well as the need to feel part of the in crowd. That creates the whole thing.
You have them roaming round "look at me in my £200 trainers and another £300 worth of designer labelled clothes" yet they are hanging around bored and the reason is they have no money left to go out and enjoy a night out." I can still wear it while dossing the streets and my mates will give me cred"
Which sums up buying a 400w mod and not being able to use it over 200w, why buy it " I can show it to my mates while we doss the streets and i get cred for it cos it can go upto 400w". Manufacturers are aware of this need to be best or feel accepted and capitalise on it
Is a 400 watt mod by Smok going to be better than say a voopoo drag or an IPV mod. It might have 200 watts more available but as you say who needs it, So no
Hope you don't mind but I thought I'd post from a manufacturer perspective. We are a small setup, so we have to choose colours carefully and there is always an argument in the design room about what colours we should do, we are not Smok, so we can't release every colour under the sun, so what we do is tend to experiment. Black is pretty much a definite topseller (5 out of every 10 units sold) followed by steel/silver/grey as it's probably the top gender neutral one, but leans towards the male stereotypes I think , beyond that we try and pick colours that will oppose (attract a completely different type of user), for the S17 we choose pink, basically because it was the polar opposite of the Black in regards to buying colour profile, also outside of black it was the highest searched specific colour for a mod online at the time. Everybody always suggest Navy as a colour, but it's profile is so similar to Black, a person purchasing black will nearly always be happy with navy and vice versa, and a black purchaser will nearly always be happy with grey/steel as well. Basically most dark colours appeal to the same user. Also in our experience nearly every user will make do with black/steel/grey it's not a deal breaker, but nearly every other colour is for one person or another. When it came to the S22 again we were in a bit of dilemma, we wanted a more gender neutral colour and ended up going for green, and it's a limegreen (dark green can be associated with military and again not be gender neutral) as brighter colours like neons can be more attractive to a wide group, it'll be interesting to see how this colour performs as it's not released yet, but pre-orders suggest it's a far stronger selling colours. Personally I like dark colours with bright accents (black and yellow), and as we hopefully grow we'll be able to release far more variations. Interestingly it can be as much the name of the colour that sways opinion, Rose red will not sell well with males, where as Blood red will.

I don't think it's just youth culture. It might be more overt in younger people but I think a lot of older people behave that way too.
Agreed to an extent. I find its those who follow the fashions and keep up with the Jones's though. All of which causes a lot of jealousy amongst it for some, not to mention debt. Having never been into mainstream things i sort of don't get why there's a need to compete for who's got the most, biggest, best or indeed who looks the best. There's better things to do in life like enjoying yourself,I don't think it's just youth culture. It might be more overt in younger people but I think a lot of older people behave that way too.
Ok, I 'took one for the team' and had a look to see what these guys actually have that may appeal to some of us:
