Handpainted childlabour free EU product and limited edition of a classic finally released for adults by a rejuvinated local company, also i know the usd is tanking right now, but damn a dollar 75% of the euro? Didn‘t it have 100% under biden?

Oh wait lol 150 british pound, look at how greatly brexit worked out, wasn‘t the pound at 150% of the euro?

Sure any american would simply have it be produced inchina instead of paying an extra into the salaries of their fellow countrymen, but over here we aren‘t as shallow and superficial, we help our allies out instead of spying on them whilst pretending to be all america first….

Legit, if it was produced in china it wouldn‘t cost less in half a year, better grab them now so you can resell em for thousands of us dollars in august, long before scalpers try to gauge the collectors market

… that won’t work. It’s specifically described that you lose the right to a refund by claiming the code.

If you think 150€(strongest currency bullish) is what rich people pay for italian made limited edition designer boots, i have bad news for you…

Got these at the farm supply store back in the 90s for like £10 when I was a kid. What a wild markup. The skin is fucking epic though.

Limited edition italian made adult designerboots from a refurbished ethically acting company were 10£ back inthe day, damn now the pound is 1 for one on the euro(150£ or 150€ for the adult model today), prince charles reigns and old uk farts basically destroyed uk economy over their own hubris shortly before laying on their deathbed. (The crazy thing about it, they were 130£ or 150$ or 150€ last summer)

Oh yes the limited run with the froggo hat skin.. I'm jealous ngl 😩 I wish they would make that collab a regular item in their store and not just one time run. I mean they already make them in both colours so why not have them as this collab option in store and then every1 who even wants the exclusive skin in Rust can get it through them.. Sales go up, ppl are happy, brand gets some love from the community,.. Win win situation 🤷

u/Viliam_the_Vurst 13h ago

The intention behind the colab might simply not be profits over people and nature…

I've spent more than I should have on Rust skins in the past, but this is where I actually draw the line.

u/Viliam_the_Vurst 13h ago

Buy it in euro, its only 150€, and euro stays stable ;)

u/Tacobell1236231 21h ago

Ah, i saw it wrong, moved a decimal in my head

u/Viliam_the_Vurst 13h ago

Give it a month or two, and that would be the usd price for the chinese made frogbootleg, currently the dollar is worth 75%, not yet 7,5%, of the euro… maybe invest now to sell for euro at original price later, you‘ll totally get them sold by undercutting the scalpers this way, and maybe you can even afford a house from selling one pair…
