    An attempt to squeeze a few bucks out of anyone willing to spend the money. Everything is marketed to have a case now and it takes up so much room extra room. I can fit 4 automags in an HK XL Case...which means they will probably stop making them since thats 3 too many for capitalism.

        I don't see a case to protect the inside of the case from sweat or paint from of the headband.

          these headbands will never see sweat, or paint.
          They'll live sadly in the darkness of the case, until they're sold to another person who will also not use them.

              And here I am, yet to find anything wrong with this setup…

              Honestly, it’s just what happens when any hobby fills up with hypebeasts. They’re less concerned with playing than they are with being seen in their Hormesis band. It’s weird, and I just ignore it.

                This reminds me of last year at Oregon supergame, we had a vender tent going set up by Lt. head-shot and late Saturday night this guy came into the tent drunk and basically badgered the guys into trading him a bunch of stuff for a hormesis T shirt

                  I'm just mentally incapable of understanding the mentality that something of that sort is valuable.

                    I generally ignore it, too, but this is just silly enough that pointing and giggling feels acceptable.

                      I'm confident this is an attempt to market something that already existed for a different purpose.

                        We have a new product to raise money for the Forum. A sleave to protect the headband from sweat and paint when you are wearing said headband. But wait there's more! An added case to hold the sleave when you put said priceless headband in the protective case and its protective case. I get 15% off the top of the genius idea.

                          Let's sell silica packets that go in these headband cases that have the MCB logo on them. They "keep the moisture level at optimum levels to maintain your headband"

                          Hahahaha that situation was hilarious though! jokers managed to get that guy to trade one of the bands for a whole box full of basically stock barrels. Then we drove wayyyyy over the speed limit in that 4x4 to drop them off lol

                          Oh yeah speaking of which.... Anyone need a Hormesis band? I forgot that I got one from that trade as well 🤣
