- Branchex, on 08/06/2008, -2/+425Someone should make an app that looks exactly same and call it "I Am Poor & Yet Still Tacky" and sell it for penny.
- xgambetx, on 08/06/2008, -3/+379and someone will actually buy this
- GCarden, on 08/06/2008, -5/+293How does one get $480.79 of iTunes credit? Did you have rob a convenience store of all their little $15 iTunes cards?!
- nickbr00tality, on 08/06/2008, -1/+255What happens if you accidentally bought it? HELP.
- Niightwitch, on 08/06/2008, -0/+203All he needs is one sucker to buy it, and it will make it all worth it for him.
- speakafreaka, on 08/06/2008, -4/+183What a smart bastard.
People will buy it too, to say that they bought it, and he gets rich.
PROFIT!! - devoss, on 08/06/2008, -0/+154Steve Jobs has two.
- THEMACGOD, on 08/06/2008, -4/+140I hate this guy.

- yunus, on 08/06/2008, -1/+121just pirate it. That'll show em.
- lebruf, on 08/06/2008, -2/+103Despite all the spelling and grammatical errors that make him look like an illiterate twit, this guy is actually brilliant IF somebody buys it.
- Picard102, on 08/06/2008, -7/+98Finally, a good app.
- vogelshock, on 08/06/2008, -1/+86"If it's to expensive for you . . ."
I'll save my $999 for internet quacks who know how to write a sentence. - iDiggIt42, on 08/06/2008, -1/+84Have fun being broke and looking like a douche.
- neodude237, on 08/06/2008, -8/+90Yeah, its real, or now it is, check for yourself, and more importantly, WHO WOULD BUY THIS? You can buy 5 iPhone 3Gs for that price

- alex7575, on 08/06/2008, -3/+75Did anyone else try to scroll down to read more?
- supdude, on 08/06/2008, -1/+68Oh, such a beautiful stone picture. I'll just give this to my future wife instead of a ring.
- basye, on 08/06/2008, -0/+65Just more evidence that Apple is letting pretty much any app through with little to no review.
- FunkyNuts, on 08/06/2008, -1/+63Now THAT is brilliant.
- RyeBrye, on 08/06/2008, -1/+58Apparently lockergnome@mac.com does.
- eleven, on 08/06/2008, -0/+57Credits - do you prepay for your iTunes purchases? All I do is hit buy and it comes off my credit card.
- Yazoo, on 08/06/2008, -1/+55***** ***** ***** *****. This Stuff always happens to me! I ***** accidentally bought it, and my account is linked to my credit card. WTF DO I DO?!?!

- wibambau, on 08/06/2008, -3/+55The pet rock is back.
- tapo, on 08/06/2008, -0/+48Lookup iRepublican and iDemocrat on the App Store. They're $1, and only show a picture of an Elephant or Donkey.
Yes, anyone can publish an app, not matter how stupid.
(Unless your code is GPL! ***** stupid ass terms.) - inactive, on 08/06/2008, -1/+49Wait, this might be stupid enough to work. :O
- TopherT, on 08/06/2008, -0/+48Quick someone make something thats similar for 1$. Call it 'make everyone think you're rich!'
- bjornski, on 08/06/2008, -8/+54Nobody said iPhone owners were smart.
- jakethelake, on 08/06/2008, -0/+46accept*
- superkendall, on 08/06/2008, -0/+44That's what he's counting on - ONE person to download it just to crack it! And you know it will happen.
- prium, on 08/06/2008, -0/+37I'm pretty sure 5 iPhones would show your friends how rich you are.
- Enisity, on 08/06/2008, -2/+39LOLOL
- aussieNickuss, on 08/06/2008, -1/+38Just take a friggin screeenshot, crop it and chuck it in your photo roll.
- debuggercll, on 08/06/2008, -0/+36It probably took 15 minutes to write that app. It's a picture and some text. A can of soda would have been fair compensation.
- chaoswings, on 08/06/2008, -0/+35Ironically the app has a 2 star rating, How it is rated so high I'll never know....also it looks as if the author is seeding the comments.
"Well Worth it - 5 stars

I bought this for my wife and she loves it. On the other hand she tends to be distracted easily by shiny objects."
That sounds like a comment out of a bad infomercial. - inactive, on 08/06/2008, -0/+35someone has to buy it first...
- daridave, on 08/06/2008, -0/+35There's a lot of stupid crap on the App Store already. Yes, Apple really is letting anyone publish anything. I'm very disappointed so far... I mean, some of them ARE amazing (shazam for one), but others look like great apps at a good price, but once you install them, you realize they don't work at all. They better think of some filtering/cleaning or else the App Store will be filled with garbage in 6 months.
- LR2_, on 08/06/2008, -0/+34Woah, submitted by Chris Pirillo?
- aussieNickuss, on 08/06/2008, -1/+35All Apple could see was the $999 price tag.

- m3mn0n, on 08/06/2008, -0/+32Punch yourself in the face for being so stupid.
- Forsakenmantra, on 08/06/2008, -0/+32Why do people keep talking about "iTunes Credits"? It's truly mind boggling to think that that many people are unaware that iTunes allows you to bill your credit card...
- resident13, on 08/06/2008, -0/+32God! I wish I hadn't spend that thousand bucks on the potato chip shaped like jesus on ebay!
- teaaker, on 01/25/2009, -2/+32He can't even spell "to" right.
- PhoenixAvatar2, on 08/06/2008, -0/+28You're both missing the point here...
- Cam_86, on 08/06/2008, -1/+29He's right..
Look at the diamond industry, and then ask yourself what the tens of millions of people who support it get out of their 'investment'. There will always be idiots who shell out money for status symbols that have no REAL use, and there will always be cultural aspects that push people to make stupid purchases. - Zadernet, on 08/06/2008, -1/+28What's stopping me from copypasting the image and making my own app with the gem for free?
