Sure I can afford it but I would be the most stupid person on the planet to pay $500 dollars on top of the already marked up price due to the top of the line custom work they do. It took me a while at $339 price they have to come to terms with it and actually be okay about ordering some. When I found out that they charge $500 to rush them which to me that is outrageously high and sounds like nothing but greed. So it makes me now have rethink my what I thought to be definite purchase. I do know I will no longer promote them nor even mention them again in a forum post, blog or my YouTube channel for three reasons. One their snooty attitude. Two how hard it was for them to we thank you for your business and for the business you’ve sent to us and three they actually on their site have a place you can select to pay an additional $500 dollars to put a rush on your order so the idiots who actually select that nowhere even close to a reasonable rush fee are paying $875 dollars for $159 retail set of Apple AirPods.

I’ll just wait 7 weeks on mine. Believe me I want them sonner than that and I would have paid $100 extra dollars for it but $500 makes me not want to do business with them.
