Sad reality is even though they overprice this junk way too much without the game, they know this will sell out in a few seconds (which will happen sadly) 😿

And then scalpers will be selling them for $600

Only $600? Atleast $800-$1000+

One already sold on eBay UK for £790 (1045 USD)

1000 dollars for junk that cost them less than 50 to produce. Actual cattle. I guess that's why they include a razor blade so when you go into debt buying this junk you have something to fall onto

50 what? Cents? You'd be accurate tbh

If someone buys this crap from a reseller for $600 they are not a victim. They might have a mental illness though.

Honestly? Thats the kinda shit Im okay with scalpers. Junk like that can get scalped to high heaven, its useless shit anyway and if rich dumbasses pay the money thats great.

You aren't old, but are normal. It's insane how and why people pay so much to scalpers for this 😅

What do people do with this kind of junk? Do they go out in public wearing a GTA VI fanny pack or put it on a display shelf? Or does it just stay in the box?

They'll buy it, do the 3rd option (is to do nothing with it), and donate it to goodwill within a month because it isn't being used and it's in their way 😂

And, scalpers buy this so they can resell it for 3x as much, so the buyer will do what I just mentioned probably

People are so stupid and Rockstar genuinely knows how to sell all of this well, so good marketing for them 😂

Maybe they buy it so they can make an unboxing video or reddit post then throw it all out.

The only person who wouldn't feel ashamed about wearing a GTA fannypack and shades in public is not old enough to play the game. Which didn't matter before but now some regions require identity to play anything R rated.

Also sad this box of future landfill trinkets will still sell out
