Snapbots are probably the cutest thing to happen to at least half the nation after an unnerving election earlier this week.
Snapchat Spectacles Sold Out via Adorable Snapbots
These adorable bots are bringing more than smiles to faces across the internet. In Los Angeles, a minion-esque Snapbot sold Snapchat Spectacles in the mos tentertaining of ways – i.e. lighting up, widening its eyes, emits your snazzy new wearable, and of course vomiting rainbowed-colored receipts. P.S. props on the consistent branding.
This is how the @Spectacles bot works! It’s like magic and rainbows and cats and unicorns in a box that spits out spectacles! Neat! pic.twitter.com/jkha5qlB73

The highly sought after specs are built with a 115 degree lens and can record a video for up to 30 second videos. These vids upload to your camera roll and Snapchat via WiFi or Bluetooth. The lens of the camera also lights up when someone is recording so no need to completely fear anyone who is wearing a pair.

However, it seems like many people were disappointed they weren’t able to snag the $129 glasses due to money hungry, um… early buyers who were able to pick up multiple pairs.

But, if anyone is seriously interested on getting their hands on a pair, look to eBay where you can find Snapchat Spectacles for $500, minimum bid?!?!?
will be interesting to see where the second markets net out for @Spectacles after a week or so ($130 from Snap if you can find) pic.twitter.com/6YFWAI3vti
