Thrifting has a long-held reputation for being the cheaper way of snagging chic-looking clothes and home goods, though it seems times are changing – and so are the prices. Case and point? The nearly $800 framed lobster taking Reddit by storm.

Earlier this week, a display of a taxidermied albino lobster in a commemorative shadow box emerged as one of r/ThriftGrift’s greatest finds, shocking users with its $749.95 price tag.

“I'd never heard of first dibs before this thread and holly crap their prices are insane,” commented user u/jimlahey2100, referencing the secondhand store in question, another likening the store’s approach to sales like that of a bad online flipper.

“First dibs is like eBay,” mused u/Kanadark. “You can ask whatever you want, doesn't mean people will pay it.”

Yet Mr. Lobster, as we’ll call him, is far from alone in alarming the thrifters of Reddit with his extreme cost.

Alongside a small statue worth $4,229.79 (the word “worth” used very loosely),  “vintage” dirty Furbys going for $150 (holy fuck, I’m old), the items being sold themselves also sparked concern – namely, an empty Gelato container going for a little less than $1.

“Somehow I don't think an empty gelato container is even worth that much,” wrote u/Shigeko_Kageyama.

Obviously used lashes also garnered a similar reaction. “Literal trash and likely a health hazard,” wrote u/ttooblerone along a snap of the very questionable-looking package.

It’s easy to blame the TikTok thrift scalpers or Macklemore for taking thrifting mainstream, but the real villain here is you, who dare scoff at the price of an invaluable work of art.
