Social media users' reactions

The rising cost of the limited-edition Stanley Cup has sparked intense debate over its value.

While many Stanley brand fans uncontrollably pursued this new item, the majority thought this so crazy

This world will reap what it sows. I am no Christian but this world has no morals or values worthy of note. You are owned by the products you buy, one user said.

I really don't get the craze for them. What makes a Stanley better than any other travel cup? The second asked.

Give it a few months, you will find this on the shelf of a thrift store, it's a CUP, Someone wrote.

It's crazy what people these days value. A freaking cup really, another commented.
