I own one tie I paid nearly a hundred dollars for. It's completely handmade down to the rolled edges. More handwork than a custom plug, it's a work of art.

But 98% of my ties were purchased at discount for less than 20 bucks...and ideally less than 15.

I think the money is crazy as well, but there is so much wealth in this country that won't bat an eyelash at a 200 dollar tie to go with their four thousand dollar suit

And for the record, my most expensive suit was 180 bucks
