Yessir. Just in case you are discriminating enough, and have a crapload of ducats.

I wonder if they can make a pair of "seamless" leather pants?

Outrageous is an understatement.

What is the point of buying a wallet of human leather, when you've got no money left to put in it

I only want one if they are cured with the salt of orphan tears. And shipped in a box made of wood from a now extinct tree. And wrapped in money taken from cancer victim funds.


And if it comes with my initials on it.

It's a wallet, but if you rub it just right it will turn into a duffel bag.

In a macabre way, I get it and don't care. Especially as it is volunteered to them by donors who obviously agree to it.

Yes, yes, I understand and appreciate the ruptured sensibilities involved.
And understand why someone would do the belch and scream in horror thing: "OMG--WHERE WILL IT STOP! THIS IS A PRECURSOR TO SOYLENT GREEN!"

On the other hand, I would not mind my cremated ashes being put into epoxy or whatever and used in a smoke burst finish on a nice bass. But that's just me and I also may have indulged in cannibalism sometime in the past.

Psh, what does this have to do with Soylent Green. I don't mind the taste all that much. I hear it's made from high energy plankton. That stuff is good for you.

Unless...


OH MY GOD.





IT'S PEOPLE!!

Is this a vegan thing?

Vegan One: "I Won't own things made out of leather"

Vegan Two: "No wait this is human leather"

FWIW I find this kinda disturbing, but there are other things out there I find more disturbing.

Can I get one with a tattoo on the skin?

I can see perhaps wanting a wallet from the skin of a deceased lover, though.

I'm on the fence.

The skin of a loved one, perhaps.
Random dude's hairy back skin, no way.

Meh, it doesn't bother me that much. I'd love a pillow made from the skin of a sexy Asian chick's buttcheeks. It would be even better if it was one that I tapped and it looked like her butt.
