1. Adjust for inflation.
2. Do it again.
3. Add 200 bucks.
4. PROFIT!
That actually makes sense
Seems like "$200 extra" is the magic number at Apple, oh wait let's double that to $400 dollars.... there, much better. lmo
Bargain!
basically sounds like they just want to hose you dry of cash better then Microsoft which will spy on you master bate to you while you master bate to porn record you doing it and then ask for 45 grand to make it disappear because that's the Microsoft way to surviving in the business world🤣🤣🤣 you wanted to know what was different with Microsoft over apple that's it apple wants cash Microsoft is a perverted psychotic money extorting machine in a nutshell so your smart to stick with apple at least with them you know where you stand🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@vbrotherita 350 not 200 is a bargain!!!
It's a profitable business model.
Create a cult, then charge a lot of money to be a member.
Scientology in a nutshell.
Christianity was like that once but decided to lower their rates for more believers
All cults, sects, religions and churches should be taxed, without exceptions.
@@bloodred255
it's still like that, except the profit is made in a different way, mostly tax avoidance.
@@bloodred255 Christianity Really what are you afraid to mention the religion on which it's based ? You know the one thats into Usury, the biggest money making sc4m of them all !
Have been saying this for years. All cults have some sort of filtering process to select those easy to manipulate. For Apple, the filter is the price, and the manipulation is sunk-cost fallacy.
the pricing for the stand and then, "we now owe you 1000 dollars" killed me idk why lmaooo
and all I ask is 200 dollars🤌
Honestly I'd be embarrassed as a CFO to sell a $1,000 stand. Ok Tim don't "stand", just sit your ass down!
@@BillAnt meh I would be more embarrassed to be a Microsoft programmer scamming people for watching porn then ripping people off for a pc stand and yes Microsoft programmers do this shit I am shocked that Barnacles nerdgasm does this over get a free pc for being a nice guy on youutbe like every other youtuber but nope he has to scam Puget PC because Power is better then Kindness

The $999 Apple stand sold out last year. Some people have way more money than they deserve.
Maybe they only made like 20 of them? lol
There probably wasn’t much of it in your region haha. Some branches could only have like 1-2 of that shit.
I imagine only very limited businesses bought them because some employee didn't know what they were doing.
I doubt anyone with 2 braincells bought those for personal use.
"credit money"

The entire Apple product lineup, distilled into two words
@@Dogappel Um... Did you not watch the video?
Most Apple products are good, but as an Apple enjoyer, I would never buy that fine woven garbage 🗑️
@@1403gavin but how can you be an apple enjoyer with out buying that fine woven garbage?🤔
You can tell this is satire really easily.
Apple would never say “that’s a bit too much”
Apple would always say "That's a bit too low". lol
Didn’t sell enough overpriced product? You didn’t charge enough.
LOL this was brilliant. it got me when I read it.
Context matters "we still include headphones in each iPhone box? Thats a bit too much. Sell them separately but don't lower the cost of the phone."
I was looking for this comment
1. Base cost to manufacture the product
2. +$200
3. Apple tax
4. +$200
5. Future litigation fee
6. +$200
7. Roll a dice, if 6 do nothing else +$200
8. Sales tax, government tax, customs tax, tax tax
9. Apple tax (yes, again)
10. +$200
You forgot the shopping tax
"Because you have functioning body parts" tax
Don't forget " we owe you a cent for every brain cell you have" tax
you forgot the apple tax pro

Sam Tucker should be nominated as Chief Financial Officer for Apple!

People in the North America work really hard for their money. I understand that there is a strong social pressure like not getting any dates if one doesn't use an iPhone, or higher levels of cyber security. Otherwise, I would rather use regular Windows computers than overpriced Mac's. It's weird that Americans complain so much about their finances, yet they waste unnecessary money on unnecessarily and ridiculously overpriced Apple products. Apple is "riding" on the gullability of the mislead people. It's so tragic, that it's already comic. It's a tragicomedy.
@@gavrielpapas773 - I could care less what others are using. My $300 Android does exactly the same tasks as a $1,000 iPhone or Android in the US.
the keyboard - add $3 for the magnets
For the pro model magnets $10, pro max $15
Linux pricing calculations:
1. Take the price
2. Subtract the price
3. That's the price
after substracting the price add time there

The 10 dislikes are from people who thought Apple's pricing was a bargain.
You can't see them
@@jex-the-notebook-guy1002 There's a browser plugin called "Return CZcams Dislikes".
It's not 100% accurate, as it only works by extrapolating the dislikes given by those with the extension onto the entire view count. But at least in my opinion, it's still good enough.

It's funny how they take stuff out of the box to save the environment (charger and headphones), but don't lower the price. They said everyone already has charging bricks, but then the cable they include in the box was for USB-C bricks, which most iPhone users didn't have. So when the old standard USB cables wore out, we had to spend money on new brick or new cables.
Of course it's just a bunch of BS! Most people go out and buy a new charger to match the new device's higher power requirement.
Oh and Apple is serializing every friggin' part in their iPhones so it doesn't work well or at all if replaced by consumers. A great way to save the environment.... not!
cult members will buy anything from them.. I'm not surprised if they make a $100 iPlastic bag which is "environment friendly"
Oh, and don't forget: Apple wants you to only use Apple branded charging bricks too. For "compatibility." And yes, they cost more. Don't buy them though, I am literally using a regular 4 port brick myself and it's fine.
I use an Ankle high speed charger with 3 ports. I can change my laptop, my watch and my iPhone at the same time. I don't use Apple charges.
@nataliam9764 you can charge from your ankle? Didn't know robotic limbs were available yet.
My partner is an "Apple Fan", I am a "PCGuy".... with the cost of the cables she has been forced to buy over the years I could afford a couple of spare PCs.
When after yet another cable broke at the connector, in an Apple center after her complaints, they told her that she had mistreated the cable..... they are so advanced that they make cables with a sensitive character .( made in a sweatshop in Asia by the way)
Apple cables have always been impressively bad. I remember back in the early iphone days, somehow, everyone i knew who had an iphone had a completely frayed cable.

Apple is loved only by those who don't earn for their stuff themselves.
Sam should be awarded a Nobel Prize in mathmatics for figuring out Apple pricing.
Oh yeah "Mathmatics" fo sho! lol
Seems like "$200 extra" is the magic number at Apple, oh wait let's double that to $400 dollars.... there, much better. lmo
It is the shame that they don't give Nobel prizes for math. More like Fields medal

It was your comment that made me realise how less he has. I always subconsciously thought he might be having about a million or so atleast. This guy is seriously underrated.
Yes he does!
I agree😊
He has 320 k
Everything +$200, great business model!
Thanks for clearing that up
The wheels and the stand are insane to me. Even the $200 VESA mount costs as much as a low-mid end monitor. You can even get 2 low end monitors for that amount of money. For the $1000 stand, you can get a whole gaming laptop.
What's more insane to me is that last year the stand was sold out in the US.
Well, they could sell Tim's poop in a jar, and the Apple sheeple would flock to it like flied to sh*t. lmao
WTF! when they cost 849 euro in my country, which translates back to 900 us$. INSANE! (I'm talking about the wheels)
@@Koen75NL You can get a whole gaming PC with wheels for the price of just their wheels.
A stand for 1000 bucks that you could easily make yourself with like 100 bucks worth of tools is criminal in itself.
I mean c'mon it's a L bent Aluminium plate with another plate that has 2 hinges on it and a magnet on the front.
(Just checked as a consumer you can get the aluminum for like 20 bucks and I won't even get into the detail how cheap it would be for a company to buy in bulk)
Number 1 reason why I Phone fans actually confirm the Dunning Kruger effect
Perhaps "Stockholm Syndrome" should be renamed to "Apple Syndrome."
@@tedpalmer5552Why tho?
oh the irony :)
@@EmptyShark because apple love locking you into there walled garden by making there equipment one way compatible trapping you in their ecosystem.
I don't get why? Like I agree with the video but I don't get why you think of the dunning Kruger effect, that despite what people think it is just means a persons personal perceived expertise grows slower than there actually expertise. It doesn't mean people who know nothing about a subject think they are more knowledgably than experts or that moderately informed people think there knowledge is the least.
I can smell the incoming angry Apple Cultist
Can you smell that somehow most of them are missing an organ or two?
It actually funny 😂 I love it
I just love how it just works! OK? Let me repeat to you their exact marketing!

@@racingflash6292nah for xs i paid less than 200$ and having every organ 👍 im not one of apple fans boys
It’s ridiculous and shady to say the least. One word = GREEDY
And the sad part, people still buy Apple product, further fueling this greedy company.
It's demonstrably not ridiculous since it's somehow one of the most lucrative business models in the world.
We have boy math girl math dog math and cat math. BUT NOW WE HAVE APPLE MATH
To take notes for calculations, we should release the Apple Math Book Pro!
This is the after math.
This is the moment Heisenberg became mathematician
Makes sense ipad don't include calculator
There is the ‘pink tax’ for women.
"that's just incredible!!!" 😂
I like their way of thinking. But I like how customers think that the prices are justifiable even more. 🤣
I always question someone's decision making when I see them with an Apple product.
I love these types of videos! Keep it up Sam
"Shut up and take my money" literally every apple Iphone user.
The $1000 stand is so crazy, even for Apple standards. You could buy the $200 vesa mount (which is already crazy overpriced) and buy a BALLER vesa stand, like being able to rotate, adjust, twist and do anything you can imagine, and you'd still be left with $600
but if enterprise-level want clean look and have budget...
@@staskozak8118 Its funny that many corporation try to save money on wages while just gifting millions to apple.
1. See how much is too much for our sucker customers.
2. Increase the price even more because they still pay it.
3. Repeat
Podcosts 🤣🤣
Apple cultists will keep paying.
one of the few youtubers who can genuinely make me laugh. i wish i could like this 100 times

Keep it coming Apple with all your BS, Sam loves ya! lol
The iPad case was spot on.
Honest apple commercial
Shut up and take my $200!
My *vanity* and *status anxiety* are so excessive that I can't help myself! I NEED the $999 Apple stand with 3 adjustments! I can't be seen with an ergonomically superior $29 VESA stand with 4 adjustments!
Sam, i watch your videos from nearly the begining of your channel, you surely deserve more subscribers, i hope your channel grows exponentialy soon

In my country the new samsung galaxy cost more than the new iphone, i choose iphone bcs of IOS. And i think its more simple and lasts longer than samsung. Plus it supports software update for 7years meanwhile samsung doing it for 4years
@@sniping_wafer7103 it changes from place to place and in most of the countries samsung is cheaper bcz of many offers and samsung also offers 7 years software update now.. its completely based on people preference to choose what they want, for simple users apple and for heavy user who wants many features android but for the same or less price compared to apple, android smartphones offer lots of features for its price but apple gives less control for their users but still charges huge which is why some people hates it
It's not simple also Spotify in Android is like 60 MB while in iOS it's like 400 MB@@sniping_wafer7103
I’ve seen less than 23 seconds, and I’m about to start rolling on the floor… 😂
i unironicly feel like at the end they would ask me to pay 250$ for watching this video
also my sister payed 3x the price of my phone (iphone 15+) and its worse than mine 💀
Man, you totally have some of the best satires around :)
I love this 😂
For sure I just subscribed and share this video with my apple brother
thank you for the succinct explanation
I like the "If (insert tech company) were 100% Honest" feel of this vid.
“Premium trash” you nailed it 😂

You weren't thinking.... differently
Being an apple customer is like being a scientologist with fewer steps.
Pod*costs* killed me lol 💀💀😂😂
You are very funny! Keep it up !
Podcosts had me laughing
Apple pricing is based around "Just how much will these morons put up with before they start calling us out on our BS?". They take that number and add $499.
Made my day, subscribed for good content
The Vision Pro is actually not that overpriced looking at the Bill of materials, R & D cost and other costs such as logistics
Every device has a sweet spot price where it's affordable to most people. At 3,500K it's just a toy for the rich.

Every apple product comes with a x2 price multiplier because... Well, we both know you'll pay it.
First time here, I must say, that Australian Accent on the Apple sales pitch just made me laugh for some reason. Great stuff, love it!
Apple: This is the cost....plus another treefiddy.
Hey Sam!
I am really wondering if you don’t get shadowbanned by CZcams especially on the videos where you criticize Google.
You do deserve more subs
"we now owe you a thousand dollars"
holy crap, that really made me laugh out loud
this one is crazy!! make a part 2 🤣
Apply does some of chasing fashion and luxury markets where people buy it because it is expensive. But in general, pricing is based off of how much they can get for it and not how much it costs to make.
Igenuinly don't understand the prices the stand for example is insane, not even the materials raw are worth 1000 dollars. But the complete suprise for me is that people actually buy it.
Same goes for the extra ram or ssd space. it's all 200 dollars when none of those parts are actually the same price. Ram is fairly cheap compared to SSD's They just put prices on it whatever they want.
It's an electronics company that doubles as a luxury fashion brand.
@@FormulaJRay I still don't understand how they haven't yet launched a clothing line. They would sell like candy at their typical crazy prices.
they do it because they can... they get rich doing it and people pay for it.
Because people pay those premium prices. Last year the stand was sold out in the US.
@@maythesciencebewithyou correction stupid people buy it. You can literally buy a vesa stand for maybe 40 bucks
1. search up the new product
2. add 200$
3. add 200$
4. sell that sh*t
and if you don't end the price number with a 9 you get fired on the spot
i never understand ppl that buy apple products.
And Apple users will never understand how people can submit themselves to using Microsoft's Windows or Google's Android.
You only look at the hardware specifications and the prices, they look at the user experience of not having to deal with Microsoft's and Google's bullshit.
The only sane people are those running Linux or BSD.
Sam is that one friend who has the annoying habit of beginning a conversation soundly so smart and confident, 😹 that the smartness and confidence ropes you but it all goes down hill and crashing 🤣 as you realize they are starting to spew nonsense.
The real nonsense is paying 999 for pro stand
We now owe u a thousand bucks 😂😂😂. Amazing creativity
What about the $30 apple rag?
How did you calculate the price of that one?
The real reason for high prices is quite simple. It's because of their "Walled Garden" approach. Just let the DOJ open up competition by bringing imessage and stuff over to Android and watch the prices fall!
For those of you complaining about high prices and not wanting open competition, you can't have it both ways!
I don't think the people who want lower prices are the same people who don't want competition.
"And there we go.... bargain." Gold.
Priceless video.
1:11 Nice Cyberpunk 2077 reference
How does this make so much sense 😂😂
One of your all time best videos 😂😂😂👌👌👌
Makes sense. When iPhones were subsidized, you had to fork out $200. I guess that trend just continued.
The best video so far. Just laughed my... iPad off.
1:10 GOT ME ROLLING ON THR GROUND🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's Apple 101.
Costs More than last time. Thats just incredible.
And the fans just continue to pay.
This makes so much sense
2:40 "...I hope you have fun and learning something today . . . and we are asking in return . . . . is $200"
LOL! I did not see that one coming!
The best video of the year so far 😂😂
"We now owe you a thousand dollars let's just flip that on it's head" makes sense
Hhhh never seen this man before, great video thanks
Apple charges what they can get away with. You don't have to buy from them.
the keyboard is ridicolous expensive
Price is what people will pay for something
I like the concept, too nice to be the marketing head.
Gimmick for iMac stand is.. hilarious..
This is what I've always suspected.
Most of those 'explanations' were great. The one exception was the Vision Pro: the comparison to ipads and air pod maxes doesn't have the same kind of logic that made some of the earlier ones so great (eg. the $1000 stand or the ipad keyboard) nor the obvious absurdity of some others (eg. replacing leather with recycled materials for same price). Based on what I've read, the price of the Vision Pro is actually quite fair (as in, Apple is not making huge margins on them). Obviously, just because it is a 'fair' price doesn't mean it is 'worth' that price to any particular consumer.
I thought he was really explaining... but it turned out Boy was roasting Apple so hard.
Bro spitting truth 😂😂😂😂😂
I literally got apple ad before this video😂
It always reminds me of The Onion article on inflation. "Landlord Forced To Raise Rent Due To Thinking Of Bigger Number".
