A 60$ plastic spacebar? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I guess this just proves that capitalism really is a great ideology for making money off idiots.
moduspwnensIts not capitalism, so much as it's the eccentric wants of other people.
Example 1: Baseball cards. They're pieces of cardboard that probably cost 20 cents to produce, yet some of them sell for hundreds of dollars. Why? Because someone out there wants them THAT much.
Example 2: Any kind of art (but we'll say painting in this example). This takes a lot of time to create, and they could sell for thousands of dollars, or sit on the store wall forever and never see a buck, all depending on who happens to walk in and decide they want the painting and that they'll pay whatever they think its worth.
Do you understand now? Its a matter of who really wants this spacebar. Is it worth $60 to you? No. Is it worth $60 to the drop participants? Yes.
