Mused by a similar thread in the power pc forum to share some of the insane prices people ask. Thought it would be amusing here. I must admit, I had a bit of a fever to get a pencil but would never pay the prices some people think they can get for an item we know will be in full stock pretty soon. Just today the keyboard is available in most apple stores in my area. Besides, they're already overpriced!

Here's a few funnies from my local craigslist. Amazon's pencil price was pretty funny too at last check.

700?? That's insane. Is the seller including a iPad Pro with the Pencil? Or is 4 Apple Pencils for 700?

Today.. I had emailed one post selling the Smart Keyboard for 250. The post indicating that they were hard to get in stores & how there's no need to wait. But I explained to them that the jig was up... And they are now available online for pick up.

Well, the poster isn't great with grammar (who am I to judge). I assume they want 700 per pencil. Hilarious!

Thankfully the posting are all 20+ days old, so hopefully nobody fell for that.
