People who buy these refuse the right to complain about the price of any products. If this is what people want, then they may as well burn money. Nobody needs this in their house to 'show off' their stuff
But I wasn’t put on this world to deal with just my basic needs. Humans didn’t evolve for millions of years to not be allowed any wants.
Let people live a little and please try to judge less. If you don’t understand something, try to learn by for example asking questions.
I myself am not going to spend the money to display some rocks I found or whatever but I definitely get the appeal. Goblin brain goes oohh shiny ??

same can be said about buying macs. Why so narrow minded? For us collectors who have cool stuff to display this is actually extremely cheap, i just wish it was a bit bigger. There is very limited options on nice display cases and most cost thousands $ and require you to wire the lighting yourself creating a mess in the back with wires everywhere. Even the ikea stuff cost more and require hours diy. This is an awesome product at $300 for 4, making a full stack of 8 costing $600 with built in lighting and very clean setup, it's extremely well priced. I will definitely be buying them.
Just because YOU have nothing to display and only care about your macs doesn't make this product "burning money".

An extremely well designed product but with an insane price tag. The DIY route could easily approach the same finished look for around 10 to 20% of the cost.
