I can't speak for everyone, but for me it's so I can afford hookers and blow.

This I will support through future Team Tesla orders. I suppose you've gone through the profits of my other McSpunckle wares by now as hookers and blow tend to go quickly.

lol.
A serious response: Unlike something like, say, a compressor (the most overpriced things ever), reverb pedals are supposedly kind of difficult to design and build.

we're using 115% of the natural resources and the Pedal trees (pedalus awesomenensis) are already close to extinction.

A good compressor is not a simple circuit to design...nor a good reverb. Do you think they are overpriced because you don't notice a huge benefit/difference in sound?
