But that fact that "more is not noticeable" (of a product, or material) in no way drives demand to zero.Bernie_by_the_Sea wrote:You keep bringing price into the equation.

Ummm.. We have a semi-infinite amount of sand. Demand for sand does not decrease if more comes available on the market.
Computers are so plentiful that the price has gone down, but demand for them remains high (and increasing).
Cars? Cell phones? Gas? Nope. Can anyone think of an example?
With a near-infinite supply more is not even noticeable. The number of computers is not yet near-infinite. Ditto cars, cell phones, gas.
Sand is near infinite, but by no means is the demand "zero".
Can you give an example for your hypothesis. And remember, you don't want price involved.
