Arguments of Fact or Deffinition and Related Space

At Palm Beach Tan, there is an argument of fact with the prices that they charge for their services. For some people, a new membership fee of $75.00 is reasonable for the service they provide, but for others, it may seem like that amount of money is ridiculous. Also, depending on what level of service you would like, silver, gold or platinum, the price will change for your monthly fee. This is an argument of fact because some may argue that it should not cost money to start a membership there considering you are paying monthly. Others may also argue that no matter what level of membership, everyone should pay the same flat monthly fee. The prices for lotions are also an argument of fact because many think it is crazy to pay $75.00 for a bottle of lotion that will run out after about 15 tans.
There is also an argument of definition when someone mentions the word "tan". Does being tan mean glowing or does it mean bright red burnt skin or does it mean a leather like texture and color of skin. There are many different ways that individuals could define "tan" in comparison to what Palm Beach considers "tan".
