By my expert calculation below based on the prices above…that’s basically $250 per bottle of Jarritos - also known as the MOST EXPENSIVE BOTTLES OF JARRITOS IN THE HISTORY OF FOREVER. PS I know a guy that can get you nearly 333 bottles of Jarritos for the price of those 4 above. And you can actually DRINK the ones my guy can provide for you.
I don’t think this is even close to the worst example of people paying seriously upgraded prices for a ‘special box’, but it’s the newest on my radar.
I bring this up every few months and have yet to get a satisfactory answer that’ll shut me up…why are people so willing to pay so much for these ‘special boxes’? And…furthermore…what do people actually *do* with these special boxes? You can’t wear the boxes, so what do you do with them? Do you wear the shoes? Or just buy the package in hopes to flip? But…why? What draws people to these boxes and these knickknacks?
To me - the special box is truly a conundrum. They’re always a pain in the a$$ to store and…I’m a grown man with kids running around…what the hell am I going to do with an oversized ice cream carton with a Nike logo on it? Or a box half the size of my TV that includes some nerf hoop in it? Or the super soaker thing? I don’t need none of that sh**. NONE OF IT.
I have more shoes than I do storage space, so every purchase is like a 3D version of Tetris - trying to figure out what I can fit where. And even then, I still end up putting most of my ‘special’ boxes in some deep dark corner of my garage. I actually prefer to get shoes *without the box*…
Regardless of the reasoning…SOMEONE is stacking loot off of these cardboard crafts.
