Who Buys This on Amazon?

This baffles me.

Just got a link from Amazon:-

https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B0171IKB7K/ref=pe_46865…

This is 465g of Maltesers for $22. Yup, for something that typically costs $5 when on special at Coles.

Who buys these things ?

  • No one. We wait until they're on sale.

    I'm convinced there are a lot of "sucker listings" on Amazon. They just get put up there to suck in idiots who don't know the true price of things.

  • I've wondered this as well!

    Unless the Maltesers are manufactured differently (eg. Cadbury chocolate) for overseas markets and expats here are willing to pay a premium ??

    looks like it's made (or sold) in China.
    So it could be laced with chemicals which is an extra cost.

  • Weird, I just checked the sellers website and they’re an online retailer for handmade chocolates. Nothing like Malteasers on their website. Anyway probably the listing is meant for people shopping from OS, Coles doesn’t ship internationally.

  • Hurry, only 2 left in stock.

    Maybe some sucker will buy it. Not sure why their email spam engine thinks that's me :)

    • I believe such EDM are targeting customers based on purchase history. Sure suckers themselves don't realize it.

    Big W or Kmart are selling them at $10 so I don't think this price is too outrageous compared to those monster HDMI cables on Amazon.
