$520 for two pairs of jeans: Have I lost my mind? - GoFuckYourself.com

DomBuyer · 04-05-2005, 10:05 AM

Two weeks ago, at the Target in Palm Springs, I bought 800 pairs of everything for just $9.99 and was like a pig in shit.

Yesterday, in another country not known as California, I bought two pairs of jeans and they cost me $520.

Two pairs of jeans......$520??

Have I lost my fucking mind?

My girlfriend just snickered at me as the hot 20 something wrapped up my purchases, the two of them sn-iggering a quiet lullaby together.

Meanwhile, at the factory in Bangalore, the jean cost $1.10 to make.

I thought the margins on domains was sweet.

Did that come with some head?

DomBuyer · 04-05-2005, 10:30 AM

Seriously, when did the world decide that jeans should be marked up 8000%?

Was it when idiots like me actually pay for them?

Hmm, maybe I'm also whipped but don't know it yet..

That's the problem right there, you can't say no to a hot 20 year old. You need to be more firm and just say "I'm just looking" and stuff so you aren't forced to buy.

hova · 04-05-2005, 10:57 AM

If you like them, what's the problem? I've spend much more then that on jeans, and I love them

Greg Jacobson · 04-05-2005, 11:00 AM

I thought I was gay for buying one pair of Versace jeans. Your situation is even more severe.

Sosa · 04-05-2005, 11:10 AM

haha damn, most I have spent on 1 pair is $70 I think.

spideriux · 04-05-2005, 11:16 AM

ohh man , that's big money

Porn aint got nothing on the apparal industry.

DomBuyer · 04-05-2005, 12:56 PM

My girl and I just went for lunch and walked by the store where I bought them, and the creamy 20 year old was outfront having a cig break, and she said "You look hot in those!"

Sadly, I really believed her.

Damian_Maxcash · 04-05-2005, 12:57 PM

Sounds like London prices to me......

Ouch man that's just not natural. Just on principal I wouldn't allow myself too do it. But if you like them fuck what others have to say...

By the way your probably whipped

Slick · 04-05-2005, 01:04 PM

I buy Lucky Brand Jeans which usually cost $90-$100 a pair and I think that's a lot.

Why would you spend that much? I'm just curious as to the reason, did your gf want you to buy them? Do you think people will think you're somehow cooler/better/richer than they would without the pants? I just can't understand the thought process. Anyone who cares and/or treats you differently because you're wearing those jeans isn't someone worth impressing.

Next time save the money and buy a subscription to adbusters. ( http://www.adbusters.org/home/ )

I buy Earnest Sewn too

I have about a half dozen of the same pair. I just rotate them. I like them because they are the most plain and neutral of all the jeans on the market today with a good fit. They are cheaper in Boston at Bloomingdales than they are in Bloomingdales in LA. Go figure. 190-210 plus tax in LA but no tax in Beantown.

Good choice Dom
