For a limited time Zappos.com has a item for sale on their website. It’s called the “Sh*t Product” and it’s available to you for the low, low price of $100,000!
I suppose this deserves a little bit of explanation. It all started when the always-amusing Kanye West was a guest on Bret Easton Ellis’ Podcast and shared a story about a ‘discussion’ he had with Tony Hsieh (Entrepreneur and CEO of Zappos):
I got into this giant argument with the head of Zappos that he’s trying to tell me what I need to focus on. Meanwhile, he sells all this s—t product to everybody, his whole thing is based off of selling s—t product.
In rebuttal, Zappos put a very special product on their website (with a very special price tag.) Hsieh took to Twitter to announce the new product and then something wonderful happened. People starting to review the “Sh*t Product.” and they don’t disappoint. It’s almost as good as the Amazon Reviews for the Wolf T-Shirt a few years ago. Here’s some of my favorite reviews:
