Default Kanye Plain White T-Shirt Sells Out for $120.



http://now.msn.com/kanye-west-t-shir...ng-120-dollars

Quote:
Poet Thomas Tusser famously said, "A fool and his money are soon parted." But it took a $120 plain white T-shirt designed by Kanye West (with French design house A.P.C.) to prove just how many fools exist. Priced at roughly a gazillion times the cost of a regular white T-shirt, this Egyptian cotton "Hip Hop T-Shirt" bears no visible difference from a dollar-store tee. Other than the words "A.P.C. Kanye" silkscreened on the inner neckline, of course — letting only the wearer know how willing he is to throw money down the toilet. But despite the exorbitant price and simplistic design, the Kanye T-shirt sold out upon its debut, along with $265 jeans and $280 hoodies.
I can understand a few people buying the shirt for regardless of the price but really? The only other thing that would make sense to me is if only a few shirts were made, and a few people made the purchase, thus selling out the shirt.

Funny, I read that line and was just thinking about it for 10 seconds before I realized it was a pun.
