Would you buy this if you had the spare $? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I was on bullet proof automotives site today and saw this Junction Produce money clip for almost $600!
Would any guy in the USA even buy this? It is PIMP to be sure, but nobody i know except maybe Brian Horowitz walks around with a money clip.

If it was real gold and if I ran Junction Produce stuff maybe.

***S14DB*** · 05-05-2006, 07:29 PM

How much they go for in JP(Y)?

**ThatGuy** · 05-05-2006, 07:32 PM

That's like 2 weeks worth of gas for the 240.

hahaha.....thas chump change for sum chicks. my moms goes bananas on that shit, with 4 digit receipts. 6 bones is lik, a small hand bag n a matching wallet.

koukidough · 05-05-2006, 08:57 PM

500 for a piece of metal...so not worth it even if its gold

*kognition* · 05-05-2006, 09:12 PM

This is Japanese ganster $hit, i can see a $99 clip or even a $150 clip if it was platinum or gold, but wow. That's just a whole lot of money , and do they even adjust these prices for the US market?

***S14DB*** · 05-05-2006, 09:38 PM

you can get a Junction Produce body kit for 2 or 3 of those...

*!Zar!* · 05-05-2006, 09:53 PM

I see myself purchacing that on impulse. I mean it's like the watch thread. Being a man in a suit, you can only have but so much on. And a money clip/wallet can bring positive attention to you.

Just think about it, you are about to make partner and when it comes time to pay the tab, you take out your mickey mouse wallet...

The list it for:
MONEY CLIP
US$180.00
(Silver mark)
US$380.00
(Gold mark)

Look at Bulletproofs other items. all way overpriced.

dizastaman · 05-05-2006, 10:17 PM

I have a gold money clip, my dad gave them to everyone in his wedding. I don't use money clips though so it sits on my dresser.

*kognition* · 05-05-2006, 11:28 PM

Wow, thats one hell of a markup.
I'm def in the wrong business.

KA24DESOneThree · 05-06-2006, 12:42 AM

Yeah. No one wants very strong, very lightweight dry carbon parts with aluminum honeycomb backing. Except me.

Money clips are for chumps who think flashing the cash makes them cool. If you need to flash bills to heighten peoples' feelings about you, you must lack self-respect. JP stuff is stupid expensive, and BA's prices are even more laughable.

S13E · 05-06-2006, 02:22 AM

If i had money to buy that... I wouldnt have money to put in it... which then makes it useless!
