The paradox of value is the concept that in a market economy goods and services can have different values even though they are exchanged for the same currency. This can happen because people often use different scales to measure value. An example of this is when people might think that a car is worth more than a bicycle because a car can travel faster and is more useful.

In economics, the Paradox of Value is the idea that something that has a low intrinsic value or price can be seen as more valuable or essential than something that has a higher intrinsic value or price. An example of this would be a scarce resource such as water. Even though it may not have a high monetary value, it is essential to life and therefore is seen as more valuable than something that has a higher price tag.
