[4] Ben: Right. Let's say I was right handed and had a pair of right handed
scissors. Being right handed, I would attribute a lot of use value for
this commodity. Now if I was left handed, the right handed scissors
would have little to no use value to me. Thus, the scissors would have
more exchange value to me because of the things I could receive from
someone in exchange for them. So I might exchange these scissors to
someone that is right handed because the use value for those scissors
are higher to them than to me. I would then ask for something in return
that has more use value or exchange value, i.e., money, gold, jazz tickets,
or left handed scissors that I could use. |
