Assumptions
Buyer's remorse is the feeling experienced when one decides to purchase an item, often of great value, only to later regret making that decision. This feeling can occur when the purchased item becomes undesirable or when the buyer realizes that the same item could have been purchased at a lower price. A consumer who purchased a new car last month has recently discovered that the same model is now being sold for $10,000 less than at the time of purchase. Despite a need for the car at the time, the consumer must be experiencing buyer's remorse.
