      Fucking hell, 40 for a plastic phone.

      Definitely not targeting some silly ticktock users.

      God damn the fucking garbage hipsters spend money on.

      It’s not like the planet is drowning in pointless plastic anyway.

      Further, classic copper networks are all almost gone, and will be going away, VOIP is the future, if they really want a land-line. It looks like they’re wired for ethernet, but it’s hard to tell and the most the Urban Outfitters site says is “The GPO 746 Rotary Telephone prides itself on its traditional and authentic look and feel with built-in modern technology” and “Compatible with modern telephone banking.” It seems to say nothing of specifications for either traditional copper wire or ethernet.

        If its real hipsters, wouldn’t they eschew any newly made products and instead seek vintage items out of antique stores? (Because stuff from the 80s and 90s is now antiques). So no net new plastic.
