They didn't even bother aligning the edges! 😆

This thing really does get worse the more you look at it, I can only imagine how bad the insides are 😂

Seriously, I'd say there's a zero percent chance this takes off, but luxury fashion is baffling to me, so who knows. If people will spend $500+ for a zip tie, maybe they'll spend it for this, too.

What the actual fuck

[–] ShareMySims 3 points 5 months ago

At least the names they give this shit are accurate: "AMBUSH" and "FARFETCH"? It almost feels too oniony to be true (not doubting you, it's just that obscene).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

That is literally insane.

This is the kind of shit you'd expect from a cyberpunk video game, not reality

This is one of those things where you only need a couple of idiots to buy it, and you've made a tidy profit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Sure, it's almost all profit, but at $500, you're going to need to sell more than a couple.

So they just glued a fan to a plastic case and called it a "purse"?

And they went with a cheap Gigabyte one...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

This is literally garbage.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

I can imagine neither the point nor appeal of this...It's not even interesting.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I actually really dig stuff like this

WTF. Gpu purses is not something I ever expected. There can't be that many women who love computer hardware enough to wear a gpu purse.
