Many players assume that expensive playmats = better quality. But is that really true? Let’s separate fact from fiction.
Myth: A $40 playmat is way better than a $20 playmat.
Reality: Most playmats use the same core materials, regardless of price. The difference? Branding and markups.
Myth: More expensive playmats last longer.
Reality: Durability depends on stitching, material quality, and care—not just the price. Many high-priced mats wear down just as quickly as budget options.
Myth: If a playmat is cheap, it must be low quality.
Reality: Cost Plus Pricing eliminates unnecessary markups, so you get high-quality playmats without the inflated cost.
The takeaway? A higher price doesn’t always mean a better product. With the right pricing model, you can get premium playmats without premium prices.
