Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

It was bound to happen, but much sooner than I would have expected.

Is this serious? Does JJ (Jeremy the Jerk) really think that’s a fair price? Has he lost his mind? And shame on anyone would spend that kind of money on a pair of frames. NOT OK!

Well again, price is whatever someone wants to pay and most of these are sold out. Not sure why we keep complaining about price - focus on quality and using slimy tactics that attack their customers to control the secondary market

Har dee har har har guys. I can take a joke as long as it’s with good intent, and I think it was. Good one. Just be careful: that feller named hoodog will pop up here and start calling y’all trolls and spout off about not feeding you.

Didn't you leave? If so, welcome back.

It's interesting that you're familiar with the pretty niche expression of "feeding the trolls" while at the same time posting stuff over and over again that sounds like you're completely out of touch with anything interwebz.

Yes you’re right. I suppose i should be just as angry at the big dummies who bought them and the even bigger dummies who will buy them at an even higher price on the secondary market. I’m truly disgusted that there are people out there who have so much muhla laying around that they can throw away over 5000 simoleons on sunglasses! On sunglasses, bro! Meanwhile, there are people like me who have been excited and loyal to the brand but who are now out of the market because of the monthly upward creep. Shameful that JJ (Jack the Jerk) and overzealous fiscally irresponsible knuckleheads have worked in concert to cause the udder disaster. Pure. And. Simple. On this there can be no debate.

I’m getting all worked up now!

If you seriously think about it, you will see that even 500 euros or US dollars are a ridiculous price for a pair of glasses, but all of us have spent that amount, without even questioning.
Now the prices have (enormously) increased, and it's annoying, of course, and we keep on complaining about it again and again.
As long as there are consumers willing to pay those prices, they will increase them.
And there are millionaires and billionaires, for whom those prices are peanuts.

Stick around and we’ll be thankful we got in when we did. Before long a pair of JMMs will cost …

Very true on all accounts.

TWD (Thin White Duke): Funny you should say that because this is how i self soothe when i go off the rails about price. I actually look up my virtual online receipts from internet vendors to see what a relatively good price I snagged way back then when I discovered JJ (Jack the Jerk) before he went big time. Luckily, I was smart enough to get on and out before most other people. Boom!

Tell people on Reddit buying JMM glasses are the next AMC stock and we'll be in the billions.

Then we can ALL profit from the ride up to the moon. Or you can diamond hands your JMM "investments" until they're back down to the mid hundreds.

A little bit offtopic maybe, I was getting interested in some Kuboraum frames, particularly some from the P series, as P10, P8 and others, so the ones with that kind of temples, I don't have that much experience with these frames, is someone able to tell me how is the quality compared to JMM?
I saw they are made in italy but I guess they are pretty high quality, or atleast I hope so, thanks in advance to anyone that will help out.

I'd also like to know how they hold up - they've felt great when I've held them but never know what happens six months later.
