I can't even figure out what you are saying here. If you think these purses should be higher, they cannot be, as they have been capped ( this is hardly new information to ANYONE paying attention ). If you are saying they should be lower, your last sentence makes no sense ( at least to me ).
Can anyone smarter than me explain what is being said here?
