This thread was started by the OP as a discussion of the business model that the Sharks are investing in. The merits of the quality of the PP products are
not being disputed. I didn't come up with the idea of making them out of plastic sheets. If you had watched the Shark Tank episode, you would know that the Polar Pro guys themselves started their business by selling plastic polarized sheets in an adapter for GoPro cameras for $10 and were making money hand over fist! The show touted their current 300% markup and huge profit margins on a completely nonproprietary product of glass filters. That's what this discussion is about. Two Sharks are dumping $1 million into this company for a 20% interest, on the hopes that the every new drone purchaser will want a set of $150 filters that cost $30 to make. I find that hope absurd. That's the discussion! I am only presenting the very facts the kid did on the show, to demonstrate how the investing
Sharks left their brains at the front door! The kid is making out like a bandit! He hooked 2 Sharks and collected a cool $1 million for only 20% of his company.
