The GameStop stapler that punctured a Switch 2 screen on launch day is being auctioned off for charity
The auction also includes the stapled Switch 2 console and box, the staple that did the damage, and a pair of the GameStop CEO's underwear, which I will explain within.
Includes the stapler, the staple, the (now refurbished) Switch 2 and a "certificate of authenticity". Current highest bid at eBay is $120,100.

"And here we have yet another product of double human stupidity: one for stapling an electronic and another for buying the entire thing for over 120k dollars"Its now at 220k... I get its for a charity, but wow. It's always crazy how much dumb money people have sometimes. 220k would be life changing for me...
The frequently bought together section on that listing is wild. TIL that you can buy patents on eBay.
Makes sense. Individuals regularly get patents in America and individuals regularly get cancer in America. It's just an asset albeit one that may have emotional value. But cancer will cost you your heirlooms here too
I'm actually a bit impressed this feat was done using a regular office stapler and not an industry stapler.
Oh ok, it's got a piece of paper that says it's real so it must be
This is that duct tape banana all over again.
