Still waiting for an episode where someone walks in asking for $1 million for 1 percent.

[@SamSilvestro]

Search for "sharktank highest valuation" -- guy asked FIVE million for 1 percent ($50m valuation) and actually got multiple offers and a deal! It was for a self-cleaning water bottle, iirc

[@vicenzodj]

The Most Expensive fake Christmas Tree - $11 Million The tree that stood in the Emirates Palace luxury hotel was just over 40 feet tall. I had to see 🤑🤑🤑

[@Moon_Presence]

No it's not

Its mainly directed towards the corporate market.

[@cutlass76]

$700 for a fake Christmas tree is not a lot if you take care of it you could have it for a few years before buying a new one just needs good care.

[@cutlass76]

@@Anonymoose66G true but I’m more of a fake person tree and that’s what I think.

[@RandyJamminMusic]

I feel like this would be a good business to sell to hotels and restaurants, that kind of thing. Go for high end businesses that would buy nice decorations for Christmas. Not the single family route.

[@htvacation5229]

Yeah but at that point your clients get limited

[@kanishk3528]

It's caring and lovely to waste ur time with family celebrating a Christmas tree it's enjoying man

[@ivy117]

100% agree. I work at a hotel attached to a restaurant and they will absolutely pay $700 for a tree. However those are 9-12ft trees and his model at that price looked like maybe a 7ft tree. This would definitely be a great idea because it’s always a hassle to find a good time (or a willing person) to put it up and take it down

[@RandyJamminMusic]

@@ivy117 Thanks man. I actually really appreciate someone chiming in who this business idea would be applicable. Lmao it gets so lame hearing people chirp who have no actual say in the business they’re criticizing. The real question is tho. Why could we come up with idea so easily? Hahah I mean neither him nor the sharks even thought to bring up that idea. Also I’m not sure I understand what you mean about the 7ft models vs the 9ft ones?

[@RandyJamminMusic]

@@kanishk3528 What are you saying?

[@ajmasters6546]

I paid 200 for my tree this year and that was the absolute max I would ever spent on one

[@pinkfreud62]

I've seen some really beautiful trees for that. $200 is efficient and with lights/decor, I'm sure your tree was very nice.

[@xdae]

i paid $0 for my tree this year and that’s the max i would spend on one

[@emmakai2243]

I've always felt the family task of putting up a (fake or real) tree and ornaments is all part of a Christmas celebration. I'd buy these if I owned a retail store that needed assets for annual reuse.

[@Elloqus]

That was exactly my thought within a minute of his pitch. Families want and can spend time decorating a tree most of the time, the market for trees that set up in a minute isn't that big in that space. On the other hand, corporations and businesses, that have to put up dozens or hundreds of these across their offices, don't want to waste too many man-hours on setting up decorations. For them, saving so much time with this would certainly be worth it.

[@jm9371]

I just DON'T put up a tree.. saves a lot of hassle.

[@hermanwooster8944]

I checked them out. That's exactly what they're doing now. Not only that, but they're offering Christmas tree _rentals_ for corporations. Clever.

[@D_Rat]

My 4 kids loved going and cutting down a fresh tree. Cheaper, bonding, and smells great. Then decorating together was another great day.

[@flickboogers9325]

They didn't take the tree down? I wanted to see how it was stored.

In early November I went to the drift store and bought a 7ft tree for $25 . Took me 20 min to assemble with ornaments too and everything stores away easy in a bag

[@kevindunlap5525]

The shape is ridiculous and that price is absolutely outrageous.

[@thesadwolf]

If you bought one of these trees, you'd have a tree, but no money to put presents underneath it.

[@HeyItsMe1224]

A bit dramatic, you only buy a tree once

[@iwishiwasthomasshelby]

That’s why it’s so small. It’s meant to be empty.

[@namhuy1216]

All the trees go on sale for like 70% off after Christmas. Nobody wants to store pallets of trees for a year.

[@ninjanerdstudent6937]

He should have accepted because this is only a seasonal business.

[@Scott-got-caught]

@@jackiecheng4161 it's too much.

[@Jthom88]

$700 is not too much for the consumer who has disposable income. Let Wal-Mart sell sub $200 trees to people who can't afford the luxury -- but families who can afford it will spend up to $2000 for a good tree. And a LOT of families can afford that. Like way, way more families than KZbin trolls can fathom.

[@communaltrials2613]

in india you'd get a tree for 15 dollars easy. Translates to 1200 rupees. it is insane to hear how overpriced things are in the us. i know inflation's pretty bad for you guys but jesus. don't know why people live there anymore tbh.

[@blazer9547]

​@communaltrials2613 cos jobs are high paid. There's just more capital overall

[@siddharthkhandelwal3161]

Target market is too narrow - most families have tighter budgets and/or enjoy the entire process of putting a tree up. At best, the more premium commercial establishments would buy this

[@jazzminmaspero4176]

Dollar general sells product they know isn't good and still try to pass it off to the consumer. I have begun taking photographic evidence of this if you want me to send you a couple disgusting pictures plus, they are being sued right now by the attorney general for marking prices one price on the shelf and when you get to the register they charge you a higher price. A quick Google search will back up these claims and more. That's the type of company you give your business too? And for that reason I'm out

[@tenzing2090]

[@mrhumble2937]

$20? No way for a big one.

[@Ankhyl]

He should create smaller trees, the problem with space and time is mostly for people with smaller space not only to display it but to box it the rest of the year. probably then it will be more appealing to a wider audience. But i’ve seen beautifull trees at costco for 150USD that are ready in a minute so speed should nt be the selling point

It was already a pretty silly tradition, cutting down a tree and decorating its corpse for a few days. But the solution to not dealing with all that is-- not dealing with all that.
