    Would these people buy those items again, though, right after the initial purchase? Some products are certainly repeat buys, but appliances usually take at least half a year until they break.

      half a year? good god is this what other peoples’ lives are like?
      I expect the appliances i buy to last like 2 years, and that’s for stuff like a 10€ coffee brewer!

        Same, I (probably) just picked a very low lower bound - i.e. even if the product is shit, as long as it’s not broken from the get-go, it’s probably going to last at least half a year. The point is that even for such a shitty product, showing ads for the thing they just bought just doesn’t make sense.
