The belt buckle uses the same design released by CEO Musk when he announced that the Austin-based Gigafactory is the company's new headquarters in the United States, and it features a Tesla logo and inscription on top of the star: "Don't Mess with (Tesla)".
The design of the belt buckle is complex and meticulous, with a conspicuous Tesla logo on the Texas Lone Star. Each belt buckle is made of die-cast zinc, carved, and then brushed with antique silver finishes, the whole design is quite unique, that is, the price is a bit expensive, up to nearly 1,000 yuan.
This can't help but remind people of Tesla's Cyberwhitsle and other products, all of which have been speculated by scalpers at high prices. Earlier this month, Lei Technology reported that Tesla launched a whistle, which sold for as much as $50 (about 318 yuan). What's even more speechless is that Musk is still taunting on Twitter, don't go to buy Apple's IQ tax wipe screen cloth, come and buy Tesla whistle, which is really ridiculous.
Like the previous Tesla Lightning bottle, the Tesla whistle is sold out in seconds, and it is simply in short supply. Outrageously, the price of Tesla lightning bottles on the second-hand platform increased by two or three times last time, and this time the price of Tesla whistle on the foreign second-hand platform eBay has been speculated to more than 1,000 yuan, and even the price of some products is close to 3,000 yuan.
Some netizens said that these things are IQ taxes, and Xiao Lei does not fully agree. Musk has indeed made a lot of differentiated things in recent years, such as Tesla Motors, SpaceX's upcoming Starship, StarLink, Brain-Computer Interface, Teslabot, etc., and many fans have indeed followed Musk to dream of Mars.
Musk has just been elected Time Magazine's 2021 Person of the Year, he personally does have a lot of legends, the behavior is more innovative, even with tesla's brand image has also been established, Tesla's limited edition items can always be supported by Musk fans.
These fans buy these objects in order to show their own novelty and show their financial resources. Moreover, because these are limited edition products, they also have a certain collection value. Xiao Lei expects that the sales of the belt buckle should not be as hot as Cyberwhitsle, Tesla bottles, etc., but there may also be a certain premium space.
