I done an Ask HN[0] yesterday about this entitled `Have we reached peak Black Friday?`. Some of the comments are insightful. This is my question: > In the start it was novel. New smart TV marked down considerably that sold out in minutes. What a great idea! But then it caught on and became just another grift. Amazon is full of 'tat' that although it's marked down substantially, it's never something I actually need. It's more a good deal for the seller, not the buyer, and has also devolved into scam territory too. If you do enough price watching, you suddenly see new items on the market marked down, but nobody knows the original price, since it's a new item just launched for Black Friday! The whole thing just seems like a grift. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33745233 |
