I always wonder when I see adverts like this, who are the over rich fools that buy such a Mac.

This has no obvious special features. I just hope that they are not buying them from PUL, and just marking them up by x thousand percent

There is another from Saks in a PVC-ish material and it is $995,

Heaven help us all!

Crikey, I'd never pay that. And it's not even fabricated from actual PVC, but an arguably inferior plastic, TPU. It is hardly different from those clear Chinese rainjackets on Ebay.

That shiny material certainly gets my attention but for that much that is all it gets.

Sometimes you can create demand by asking exhorbitant prices.
If its that expensive, it must be good (some people think).

Why does anyone care?

If people like it and can afford it then its their business whether they buy it or not

If you dont like it or cant afford it then no one is forcing anyone to buy it
