Hmmm...should you buy approximately 90 JVC mini-camcorders, or a single Chanel-branded Segway (pictured)? Comparing the daily Woot item to the catalog of capitalistic horrors shown on Maybe You Shouldn't Buy That yields some vertiginous numbers. My favorite is the fruitcake encrusted with 225 diamonds, worth over 12,000 JVC camcorders at current exchange rates. The blog says it best: "Because you know what sucks about dessert? How you don’t have to pick thousands of sharp little objects out of them before eating."
