    a leather fannypack that costs as much as two two topnotch leather jackets? seems reasonable

      I can't imagine who's gonna buy that, and why do the stores even pick it up?

          Probably selling just one at retail makes up for the wholesale of all stock...that still means selling one at retail though.

            Yeah, but it'll go down to 70% discount before anyone buys it. The thing is - it's not just a horribly overpriced item. It's an ugly, downright useless and awkward horribly overpriced item. Honestly I have a hard time imagine someone buying it for €400, much less €4000.

              I think he has some kind of invisible concept - the essence of which, that at least one item from the collection cost more 6000$)))))

                jesus... I can't see the slightest bit of logic in making <$1k tailored garments and small accessories that cost 5 times as much as any piece of clothing by the same designer. especially as those two pieces seem very ordinary, if that scarf is made of some holy lama's pubes and that generates the price, it just shouldn't be made at all. Same for the fannypack, no leather should be that expensive, and it certainly isn't the craft as its obviously a small, simple item for which the price without one zero would be more sensible. I don't get it?

                  Maybe they've got the decimal point in the wrong spot.

                  ...what's more wtf is that the scarf is sold out!

                    That's ridiculous. I always had an impression that Thamanyah was a bit pricey but that's a whole other level. A fanny pack that's worth like what... 3 Guidi bags? That can't be serious. I would love to hear the justification behind this pricing because I can't imagine any sensible one.

                    ^edit: Wanted to add that I would have to be literalling wiping my ass with 100$ dollar bills to pay that. But well, we all know some people do :c

                      that would make a lot of sense, but Degli Effetti is also selling the bag for €4000+

                        I think we should try to learn from him the very emergence of such price)))

                        and...

                            well there you have it...the entire world has lost it.

                            I want to meet the unicorn who provided this leather. They could have at least thrown the horn in for good measure.
