…”WTF?????”
Seriously, I have seen this thing pointed out three times now in various places. All I can say is WTF???
The object on its own is frightening enough. However, the fact that enough people went into Brooks Brothers and said they wanted to pony up and buy one from their shop window that they made it a catalog, item truly frightens me. I also have to wonder after reading the description, did they hire copywriters from the J. Peterman catalog?
“Of course,our Tie Tree also makes a memorable statement for the family. ” Yeah kids, have some ties. Yup, your kids will be really glad they didn’t get that Xbox when they are digging that tie out from the back of their sock drawer.
Your employees would much rather have an overpriced tie, than say…a raise. Especially the female employees.
A freaking tie tree…seriously. WTF???
That is crazy wack. Where did you find it? Have you seen one in real life?
And it’s ugly too! $12,500 for one ugly tie tree.
Sadly (well, not really), I have not seen said tie tree in person. Not much of a reason for me to hit Brooks Brothers. I found it first through one of the links on Go Fug Yourself, then saw a print article somewhere, then somewhere else online. Apparently the first one was for a window display, and so many people wanted to buy it, they are making them. I wonder how many people really want them now.
I can tell you want to show your boss. You would really feel appreciated if you had one of those ties, pulled from said tree…
