You should give them a special price of 149.95 because their email was so convincing.

I dunno about you guys, but my $100 jeans are pretty damned comfortable.

Bah, designers's stuff. Although I do agree with the first half of that person's opinion, it has nothing to do with Canada. And I wouldn't pay $150 for a shirt.
Unless it cleans itself, dries itself, tear proof, fire proof, turns into a Japanese Gundam robot, etc. It's just a shirt with a "HUGO BOSS" printed on it. Nothing special, not worth the price tag. I laugh at people that buy designers' stuff thinking it makes a difference.
Anyway, you should have replied back and said, "If you buy the shirt, you'll throw in the gold toilet for half price." Quote:

The Designer vs. non designer debate has been discussed before, there's a thread in the fashion section. It's hard to say what is and what isn't a waste of money. Some people in this world and even on this forum wear $5,000+ watches while others wear $100 watches and think the $100 watch is the same quality as the $5,000+ watch. Other people think a $30,000 Honda is the same quality as a $50,000 BMW or Mercedes. Everyone has their opinion.

One performs better than another. Watches... well personally I'm not a watch person. So I would say it would be a waste to buy a Rolex. But at least from what I hear, they are indestructible, so perhaps paying more to get that would make it worthwhile comapred to a generic watch. But clothing has to be the most ridiculous thing...
That being said, if someone has the dough, why not? I definately would try it out if I had lots of money. Anyway, not gonna shit on your thread, since this is beating a dead horse.
But seriously, you should respond and tell him the golden toilet is on sale too  . Can't wait to see if he/she replies to that one and what he/she would say.

Let's just say the whole "designer cloth" subject is very debatable subject which can go on forever.
