Expensive purses, etc.

Are they justifiably expensive or are they just a scam? My cousin is going to buy a $1000 purse that his girlfriend wants, you see. This is what has led me to these thoughts.

I've seen a one-of-a-kind Velvet Underground LP on ebay for 200,000 or so dollars.

Also, by convincing someone that something is rare, you can do amazing things.
See: Charizard.
People can make and sell a purse for $20 that is identical to a $2000 purse.
So what are you paying for here? The purses look and feel like they're identical to each other, so it's not the material. The design isn't really anything special, it's a common purse design made a million times before - it doesn't even have a pattern on it. Where does the other $1980 go?
anyone want to touch it?
ooo, even better, my semen is rare
anyone want their face covered in it?
OOOO, EVEN BETTER, my ass is rare
anyone want to ream it?
I've seen purses being sold in the streets that are actually really nice.
Sweatshop workers. Bastards are living like kings and queens!
Is it rare because noone has ever seen it?
noone isn't a word, dumb face
Expensive purse or big screen HDTV.
Yeah, way to ruin a perfectly good joke, dumbass
not only that, but like half of SE has
You gotta admit, that was some damn fine jokening.
Kick him in the balls and punch her in the face for being fucking retarded. Its a Goddamn purse. Its only purpose is to carry money. The money would be better IN the purse than SPENT on it.
A sack to keep all your (useless) shit in should never cost more than your pants.
Your pants should never cost more than your mom charges per hour.
Your mom is a whore.
Get it?
It was quite satisfying, I will tell you that.
This is outrageously expensive to me, at 70 dollars.
However, it is a brand name that I trust, it is extreme sturdy, with thick canvas and brass.
FOSSIL ftw.
I have friends who would spend upwards of 200 dollars for bags.
I don't get it.
No dude... you have to put your post in the box in the bottom that says "reply".
Just hitting quote makes the same message pop up again with nothing added to it, and you wouldn't want that, would you?
Yes I habitually double tap the enter key and it causes me no end of shame and anquish.
like, $500 purses
$200 bathing suit tops...JUST THE TOP...and another $150 for the bottom
something about "oh they are soooo cute and they are (insert brand name i didn't bother to remember)"
*MUAH*
Then again, I'm broke and if I can't figure out what to do with my hair, I probably shouldn't be thinking about plopping 100+ dollars on a blazer or something.
I definetly need some shoes, though. And some new Levi's.
Yes, I had to edit in my post because of the aforementioned problem that you didn't know until I mentioned it which would make it postmentioned, I guess, despite the post order inclining you to think otherwise.
But yes, anybody who is willing to spend over 200 dollars on a fashion accessory deserves death. I applaud your rational approach, Mully.
And still have $500. My girlfriend kicks ass.
I want to get some kind of shoulder/back harness that I can strap a backpack onto, thereby perfectly distributing the weight along the length of my back.
I also want a utility belt.
And a cape, but damn it's impossible to wear a cape in real ife and not look like an absolute douche.
They give there reciepts out in these tiny little folders. Like tiny, reciept sized folders.
Thats a waste of paper, I say.
NAHUH! TIFFANYS DOES IT TOO, she says.
How does that negate the fact that it is a waste of paper since a lot of people just toss reciepts, now they are tossing tiny folders too.
Fucking ridiculous.
Also, she tried to justify the purses by saying they are italian leather. Oooh italian cows, that makes sense.
She tried to compare the buying of a 2000 purse to the fact that we spend money upgrading our cars to make them run better.
She also tried to justify the 2000 purse by telling us it came with a free 500 wallet.
WHO THE FUCK PAYS 500 DOLLARS FOR A FUCKING WALLET?!?
I said Im not the one willing to pay $500 for a fuicking wallet.
