4 dollars seems like a lot to me

I think these can be purchased for a very reasonable $250.

There's something profoundly disturbing about toenail clippers incorporating a design licensed by an ancient and shitty band of burnt out old hippies actually being purchased at this price by some affluent FF doofus.

I guess, in this context, cryptocurrencies and NFTs make complete sense.

I thought you were giving some away!! Damn it!! GOTY!!

They cost $400 because there's people out there who pay that price. Just like NASA pays big money for a toilet seat. I buy mine at the dollar store, a few at a time and have them in pockets and anywhere else I can think of.

I tell ya buddy....you try using a regular old Home Depot toilet seat on a space station, and the other astronauts will beat the shit outta ya.

I was going to joke that “whoever buys these must be high”, then I saw the logo.

Hmm, too rich for my blood. I’m gonna get the Widespread Panic nippers for $225 instead.

I'll trade you a pair for a Pappy

I need two pairs!! No Pappy here though. Better shit though!!

Actually I do have some Pappy 15.. a sample from a friend! And an empty Pappy 15 bottle.. it pays to know people in low places!

Right, no one ever drops anything overboard. Never. Never a Leatherman Micra, never a Dr. Slicks hemostat, never a nearly new Olympus Tough (that really hurt). I can't fathom why anyone (anyone) would buy $400 nippers. I guess I'm just a poh boy from Sequim.

“Due to unprecedented demand...”

Bunch of those buyers will attach it with a $10 zinger and of those a few will lose it to be found one day and hopefully melted down for something useful.

Tillamook string cheese snippers for $4.99.

The dead are great and all but talk about total sellout merchandising much? Seems like they would put their imagery on toilet paper for a buck.

Apparently it is easier to make $$ by marking up nail clippers 10,000% than it is to actually develop and sell new/improved fly fishing gear.

Not sure who is the bigger sellout, the company or the consumer?

You realize the nippers include a $25.00 retail price removable lanyard too? Some value in that.

My mom bought me some way over priced nippers once for a gift. I don't even remember the brand. I normally go through a set a year because the zingers disintegrate from the salt in about that long and the nippers disappear. I was so worried I'd lose them they just sat on a shelf forgotten. I finally tied up a paracord lanyard to hold the nippers and a sharpener and I do really like them. Still never would have spent $100 or whatever on them.

$400 bucks will buy a shit load of nippers at the price of 1 buck. With that many nippers you could fish the rest of your life and never worry about losing a pair.
