It goes deeper than that. My impression is they don't realize that every thing has to be made by somebody. For them, it's just there, and can be bought with money. Click and buy. If it breaks, it can be fixed with money. Click and buy. And if it can't be fixed, another one can be bought with money. Click and buy. And if something they bought off Ebay that's 50 years old isn't delivered the next day, they leave negative feedback, because even instant gratification takes too long.
I got bicycles for free, because they were three years old (i.e. 'vintage') and the chain came off the sprocket, which for many is a reason to throw them away.
