Things no-one needs - but we've got them (almost) all!

Raphael Knecht

Lost in thought, you rummage around in the depths of the online shop and discover a shelf full of products whose function, use and reason for existence you don't know. What's this thing for? Why have they made such a thing? I thought about it.

Doubtful office equipment

In this case, I really had to call on all my Google search skills to find out what the hell this gizmo was for. As a man, just the name of the product made me smile: 'finger humidifier'. And then again when I discovered the product information. Sorry ladies, that's my man humour coming through! Aside from the laughter from the guys and the murderous looks from the ladies, I'm not really sure this product serves much purpose and is still in use today.

The great classic - no more words needed (unfortunately not yet in our range):

The rout of the download

Shitstorm in the online store

Last, but not least - a little addendum to sign off this article and by far my favourite: nobody needs to (read) this nonsense. As I've learned from various comments and some colleagues, you just want to spend your dough buying from us and have no desire at all to read endless articles. Okay, I'll take note. Now that's a melodramatic ending! #likeforlikes

When I'm not stuffing my face with sweets, you'll catch me running around in the gym hall. I’m a passionate floorball player and coach. On rainy days, I tinker with my homebuilt PCs, robots or other gadgets. Music is always my trusted companion. I also enjoy tackling hilly terrain on my road bike and criss-crossing the country on my cross-country skis.
