There have been instances when we have seen luxury brands selling their products at exorbitant prices, for example, recently we informed you about the worn-out and dirty sneakers which were getting sold for whopping Rs. 48K by Balenciaga or Zara selling a lungi (which is easily available for Rs. 100-200) at a price of Rs. 6K or a Rs. 66K folding chair bag which can store just nothing and the list is very long.
There are many other examples to prove that luxury fashion brands charge insane amounts for their products but can you ever think that a set of 6 plastic buckets can be sold for Rs. 25,999 and that too after a discount of 28 percent. Yes, you read that right! Even more amazingly, the maximum retail price of this set is shown as Rs. 35,900 and it was available on the portal of e-commerce giant Amazon.

If this was not enough, 2 plastic mugs were getting sold at a huge price of Rs. 9,914 after applying a discount of 55 percent.
Earlier the plastic bucket was shown unavailable, though it has a review in which the online user sarcastically praised the bucket a lot and goes on to say that it is so good that it should have been priced at Rs. 99,999.
Though both the products have been removed from the website now, people still didn’t miss the chance of having some fun through hilarious memes and sarcastic reactions. Here are some selected ones:

Buy it. It's a status thing. You'll be the only person who has a bucket that costs 25k. It's a piece of rare art. It's Web 0 redefined.
Then sell it for $3 million

Well, the products have been listed on Amazon but this is not the company’s fault completely as it is the duty of the seller or vendor to list products and give details about it. Presently, the products have been removed from the site and the Amazon customer care has also ensured the Twitter user that they will look into the matter.
The Internet is certainly a funny place, what do you say?
