People buying this are on the waiting list to get a Birkin handbag. You don’t just order one online. Your sales rep has to “invite” you to buy one.

To get a handbag you need to build certain amount of "pre-spending" on other categories like clothing, furniture, watches etc. The more one spent "unwanted" items, the more effective one accumulate the pre-spending amount.

The most effective way to get invited to buy a $20,000 Birkin bag is to spend $200,000 on a sofa, for example.

This $1,250 chargers could be a pre-spend item that are actually useful. Buy 20 of them for friends as gifts, you will have a higher chance to be invited to buy a handbag 🙂
 
The purpose of products like this is to remove money from the trust funds and offshore accounts of people with more money than sense and get it circulating in the economy again. This looks like an excellent product for this purpose - especially since it is not something that anybody who can't afford it is going to regret not having.
 
I am not sure what is more ridiculous, the fact they’ve made this or the fact you know people WILL buy it….
