Would anybody really pay this?

[BunnyBunnyBunny]

Never never ever ever.

The seller is super smart!!!!!! The Bidders are the crazy people.... who would pay that?!?!?!?! CRAZY>

She isn't crazy for asking it. That's her prerogative. She might be mistaken in assuming someone will pay it, as there are cheaper sales out there and Springtime Skipper isn't all that valuable. Really, people can post sales and spend as they wish. It's not my place to say.

Buying the Hello Kitty Compact for $90 doesn't make someone a fool. It is perhaps foolish to assume that the $90 price tag affects everyone the same. Or to assume that everyone has the same financial situation.

If someone makes near $200k/yr, the HK compact is a blip in their finances. If someone is trying to raise a family on $20k/yr, buying the HK compact is probably a foolish choice, but it doesn't make the person a fool.

I'd never pay that much for an eye shadow, it's way over-priced. But then the seller saw an opportunity to make money as this was an LE color from the very famous Barbie collection. If some people are willing to pay that much, it's their choice.

You have to wonder what ingredients justify a $500 price tag?

hmmm maybe I should go back for the $12 one I saw tonight? LOL
I think it's over priced but hey if someone wants it and can afford it, go get it.

Personally I wouldn't pay that much for it as theres similar colors I could get but its the fact that its a le from the barbie collection that most people would want it.I don't think someone would actually pay that price for it unless it was there fave color they've ran out and it was the only listing on there x

No kidding!

Haha okay...I just thought I'd post it and see what reactions I get. I think its ridiculous, at least for the average person, or EVEN the average MAC lover, but as you say, it's their money.

I said crazy, not greedy because some where in their mind they're trying to justify that it's worth that much, which is just crazy. A greedy person would have a lot of them and still charge a lot of money for them. I think if you have a lot you should lower the price since you're gonna end up making more than it's worth anyway. I kinda understand how crazy people get in prices when they don't wanna part with something.

 

[paradiscolove23]

That's crazy. I'd never pay that much but I can see someone paying that much, sadly.

I think what is super crazy is I saw a listing for a Coastal Scents 88 Shimmer Palette and Zoomlash Sample a while back. The listing said in the title "MAC 88 Palette and Zoomlash Mascara" or something similar and you will not believe what the highest bid was. Over $100! It made me so sad to know that someone had been decieved to think that it was a MAC palette.
