Put me in line with those who would spend that kind of money for a great, easy-to-use mirror. That kind of mirror plus myriad magnifying glasses for reading are requirements for me to remain living independently. That money is a gnat on the screen compared to what hiring help or moving into assisted living would cost in my part of the nation.
Besides, I spend virtually nothing on make-up - some trade-offs make total sense - they don't make us wasteful.
