They DO NOT get cheaper when the products are crap, there is little
demand, few are sold and there is no economy of scale.


I should have added things do get much cheaper when production stops
because of poor demand and the remaining units are dumped.
Then they sometimes get much dearer again if nostalgia kicks in and
there is a demand for existing units.
What course any particular item will take is usually hard to predict.
