I just checked their website, and while yes, they do have gorgeous cases, I was genuinely mindblown to see their average is between $75 and $120.

I have a high income so it’s genuinely not about money, I just don’t see how creating a case can be so expensive?

    No one pays that price. Influencers have codes they give out that brings the price down 20-30.

    I found an OEM iPhone 14 Pro Max case at Marshalls for 15 bucks. Best 15 bucks ever spent. Swear Apple would sell more cases if they were around this price. Not very protective but it’s stylish

    TLDR: a cheap case is higher quality in my experience.

    I had a few for my 11 pro max and they were $50 and lasted a year. Only after I bought my 14 pro max the sides were peeling off of the back plastic piece.

    I tried two different otterbox cases( symmetry and commuter) and the quality isn’t great anymore.

    The two cases I love are the Apple silicone case and the Sonix case.

    I have the Casetify Impact Clear Case and I love it honestly. It was expensive yeah but I know my phone is going to be fine if I drop it and it feels great to hold.

    it’s definitely just because of influencers, advertisers & social media. i have a 3 of them and every time i think it’ll be better quality but nah i do like the designs but they’re so cheap quality for the price. this clear one w a tan border rn scratched to eternity within a day or 2 of normal use. all others will either fade/yellow or just start chipping quicker than any other brand case i have. not worth it.

    It’s a decent phone case, I guess, but honestly I’ve had Otterbox for years and I doubt I’d try it.

    Seller price it whatever sells. Its the people who buy it. I mean how can you be so dumb to spend 100 fucking dollar on a phone case or even 50.

    U can order better cases from china under 10$ and they are as safe as the overpriced ones.

    I noticed them a few years ago too and I think a lot of the pricing is due to the fact that they are licensed to make cases with anime or Disney IP on them. They look nice but I’d never get them. Have you seen their Evangelion AirPods case that’s a whole-ass baseball sized robot head that defeats the purpose of pocketability?
