capitalism

i think a computer does a bit more than squeeze, user.
arms can squeeze, body can not computer.
why are you wasting my time on this, user? you know you made a bad thread, you know this was a mistake, why are you doing this to me?

if you think there was anything that went right then you are a retard

Apple phones at least have some positives. Juicero was completelly pointless, it wasn't even fresh juice, the fruit bits were already processed. For that price I will get some fresh oranges and a normal juicer instead, the difference in taste is huge. Juicero juice probably tastes like just buying juice in a bottle.

hipster engineers who don't understand what cost effective means, far too lucrative funding, and a lack of effective high level management i.e. someone to tell them that their $700 bag squeezer doesn't have a market and to make their engineers stop jerking off to their apple inspired rube goldberg machine and get gud

Even retarded, insecure, fat, lard ass, impulse buying burgers thought that this was a gimmick too far.

>bad idea turned into bad overengineered product just to milk customers
not even a single thing was right about this, so and /thread

I came here to post this

AvE says that they were probably selling it at the price of the parts probably. How much truth could be to this?
Were they planning to just milk inverstors and pocket the leftovers, and then realized they could actually lose heir own money and not just investors' if they sold the device at a reasonable markup?

How is it even a jucier if it needs packs of pre-prepared juices? Like what is this providing, even as a concept, over buying a carton of juice?

Nothing. The scam was a complete success.

In socialism they would have kept on producing that to meet some dumb juicero quota by paying for production by allocating resources to that from elsewhere until entire system collapses.
In capitalism that dumb business just collapsed into itself in a few months.

Under socialism it wouldn't have even been produced, planned economies wouldn't have room for fad shit like this.

I think it wasn't juice, it was some sort of fruit puree, so you still do some pressing. But it seems to me that that's only a technicality, it's still not like pressing a fresh fruit, it really provides nothing.
Only thing that I can think of is that they hoping noone would ask how exactly it works. It tould me a few minutes to understand there weren't whole fresh fruits in that bag, if I were an impulsive buyer I might have bought it right away and realize it when it's too late.

Nothing, really. The scam worked out as intended.

Or food.

It was a planified scam stunt, just like , Theranos' shit test, etc.

If it was a scam, why did they make the device so expensive to build? There are teardowns of it that show it's built to an extremely, almost ridiculously high standard inside and so cost a lot more to manufacture than it should have for such a simple concept. If their idea was always just to run a scam, why not build the machines as cheaply as possible, knowing that they'd never see any long-term use anyway?

>Everyone in communist countries were starving!
>That's what my government issued history lessons said
>No one is starving under capitalism

dont think it was a scam, its just silicon valley arrogance with a, in theory, very lucrative business model but that in reality wont work

they wanted to emulate the nespresso model for selling juice in a subscription, which would have made tons of money, if anyone would be stupid enough to pay that kind of money for juice

worked with coffee, not with juice apparently, doesnt need a startup to know that tho

I don't know about that, but my parents didn't really enjoy standing hours in bread lines after primary school. I don't want my children doing that, so I don't want gommunism. Central planning is shit.

Apple products are useful, just overpriced. Juicero is pure garbage.

Without capitalism you would have no products. Both good and bad.

>projecting this hard

because they had so much money from venture capitalists and business angels, they didnt really care that it was over priced in production, they future returns should make the profit

there are a lot of examples in which the product itself is sold at no profit but it comes with a service which costs the customer

>dont think it was a scam
Bitch, please. The jew that kickstarted the whole idea was into other scammy New Age crap, like "healthy water" or some shit like that.

Well it's either bread lines or it's the mass throwing away of surplus bread while domestic hunger is still a thing.

So they could not accuse them of not delivering. The victims were not the first internet backers but the investors that followed.
