New level of ridiculousness


$8,995 for a power strip???
Stick 8 off the shelf receptacles in a marble??? box, and there it is.
It is getting more and more ridiculous. As if manufacturers are now driven by a desire to extract as much $$$ from aaudiophiles with sufficient income, and not by a desire to advance the quality of their products.
I wonder...

I'm eagerly awaiting the day when we see $1million power strips and $5Million power cords. Better still, $50 Million speaker cables and ic's. After all, at some point there still has to be at least one guy who thinks those prices are no big deal...or as we used to say...chump change!

Maybe I shouldn't be giving some of these folks ideas, LOL.
@racamuti  I told your story to a close find of mine...he immediately stated that there are innumerable numbers of poor folk in China who could have greatly benefited from even a very small fraction of the money that the boys in your example lost. 
Personally, i think your story tells us that the high end gear that is designed for these folks is WAY WAY too inexpensive. It should be priced in the multi millions of $$ for everything in the hobby.
