Given that ~75% of the comments here are negative and a lot of those are related to how ridiculous this looks, surely someone has to raise the question of market research?
At what point does it become ok to try and sell something that the vast majority of people are going to find absurd? I don't know anyone (and I live in a fairly hipster town) who would even contemplate using one of these. Maybe the high cost means that they can make enough profit per unit to make it worthwhile?

- cLeEOGPw 12y agoMaybe they built it intentionally as absurd as possible, while still being theoretically usable, and put even more absurd price tag, to trick a handful of people into thinking it is actually something so good they can't even understand what is so good about it? The kind of effect when you price something really high and it becomes an item of luxury, even if it's worthless.
