Need a Pencil Sharpened? $35.00 USD, Please!

'Artisan pencil sharpening'? People display the pencils he sharpened?

I've got to agree with Bailey Guns- the guy is a genius. It's not the actual sharpening; it's the packaging. He sends the newly-sharpened pencil back with the graphite covered in its own tube of clear plastic, the entire pencil comes back in another clear plastic tube, and it looks like he sends the carefully-collected shavings in another small container.

Of course, we have the Wolrd's Best pencil sharpener here at home, which renders his performance moot...

Basically he's a damn marketing genius.

And his customers are f***ing morons.

Is this why I haven't seen hare krishna's giving out pencils in a long time? Can't charge those prices and remain a non-profit.

This guy is out there. If you do not feel like wasting 12 minutes of your life go to 9:50

I hate to admit it, but I am slightly intrigued by this and considered
ordering one just for shits & giggles

Organic and Artisnal food fall into the same category. Also carbon credits and being green.

A smart person would figure out how to sell carbon credits to fund their hunting and shooting.
