Pretend Luxury — from a piece of the moon to a private island

Some things cannot be bought because they do not exist. A piece of the moon, a private island, one kilometre of jam-free Dhaka flyover, an imaginary Padma hilsa, a loadshedding-proof bulb — this page is the shop for the impossible.

Alongside them is the comedy of VIP protocol: a red carpet of your own, a gold-plated visiting card, a guaranteed front-row seat at weddings, tea served before you ask. Everything is priced in crores, and everything actually costs nothing.

One thing to know: these “impossible” items never come out of a mystery box — boxes always reveal something believable. And if you want your name on the leaderboard, our server calculates everything from its own price list; nobody can type in their own total. Check the leaderboard to see who has spent the most in their imagination.

Luxury advertising nudges all of us a little. There is a small joy in dropping a crore-priced item into a cart with one click and reading “actually spent ৳0.00” on the receipt — and a small reminder that things and happiness are different. Our blog has more on that.

Questions

Does putting such expensive things in the cart move me up the leaderboard? Yes, but the server re-prices every order from its own list and there is a per-order cap. A hand-typed number never reaches the board.

Is “VIP protocol” a political joke? No. There are no jokes about politics, parties or people here — only about the small pretences of feeling important.

How does buying something worth crores feel? Try it — the receipt will say you actually spent ৳0.00.
