I could not spend $800 on a dinner... I can't believe these people exist... The most expensive dinner I've ever had was about $60.

Me neither. I wouldn't be able to enjoy my meal knowing that I just blew that much $$$ on a simple dinner vs getting something good for much less and simply using the difference to feed the homeless.

Same with those who buy a $250k car. It's like really? Not only are you giving a middle finger to those in need, but you are ****ing on the planet with that piss poor gas mileage gulping up a limited resource.

Ehh... Its all relative, just like every income class is. The same thing can be said about you and your iPhone... why can't you get a different phone that costs much less and then donate the difference to the homeless?

Touche' ;)

Too bad there's not a universal standard of ridiculous spending that if you spend over a certain amount you can be labeled as such I could reference. Sucks that everyone gets to make up their own :(

Sure enough, those people DO exist.

We all see the world through our vision but there are alot of other people making much more or much less money than you and people that value (spend money) on stuff you might not.

Variety is the spice of life :).

I wouldn't either - but there's a sushi place in my city where people are dropping that much for dinner & handing out stellar yelp reviews. They obviously make more $$ than me and hopefully donate more to charity. I like to think anyone spending 3k on a phone case is donating large to charity - even if it's just for the tax breaks.

Any of us could have purchased a cheaper phone & given the difference to charity. I give what I can when I can. I don't feel guilty about my phone purchase & I'm sure they don't feel guilty about a 3k case or 800.00 meal.

I'm sure you're right. I've just always been a little on the poorer side of the scale. Spending $3000 on a phone case would be more than 10% of my annual income.
 
If I had the means and wanted a designer like case for my iPhone 6 Plus I would consider buying this. I consider the iPhone a functional work of art and the case looks like a work of art as well. That's just me.
