People actually pay $100 for Casetify iPhone cases? (alien.top)

I just checked their website, and while yes, they do have gorgeous cases, I was genuinely mindblown to see their average is between $75 and $120.

I have a high income so it's genuinely not about money, I just don't see how creating a case can be so expensive?

I find it kinda mind-blowing how you can proclaim to have a high income and can't wrap your head around luxury products.

I'm sure you've paid incredible mark-ups for some of your outfits, even though you could have bought the fabric itself for like 5% of the cost of the outfit, or gotten a t-shirt at Walmart for 5 bucks.

And this is an iphone sub of all places. Apple has a pretty big history of marking items up at crazy prices just for branding.

I don't use a Castify case, but I'm assuming that because they market and brand a lot that they're trying to be mid-tier luxury phone cases.
