Doesn't anyone see the potential of buying these limited edition Beats Chrome now for a paltry sum of *just* $1000 and selling them for a tidy profit a few years later?

Nobody said you have to use them. Imagine they're a bar of gold: pretty, valuable and utterly useless.

Everytime I look at Beats, I fall in a trance. They just look so cool no matter what are done to them. I have to keep reminding myself they don't sound good...
Anybody look at the Colorware HDJ-2000s?

I do not understand why people think the Beats look cool. They're mediocre at best. If the brand was Shure I bet people would be complaining about the design like people do of the SRH440, which looks really similar. The big tear drop shape the headband makes over the cups is just pointless and useless and makes me want to punch myself in the face.
