I would have to have an equivalent sum of money in reserve set aside to procure a supply of rock like tropane alkaloid stimulant before spending such on a set of headphones.

In other words, I would have to be smoking crack to pay that much for headphones....

Really enjoying all these takes on how much people would prefer the price to be! Keep them coming, please.

I would like a Mac Pro for $1200. Let me know when it reaches that price point.

I’d pay a max of $350 for these. I can’t justify the price for something I really don’t need.
