TSMC Employee-Exclusive 20-Inch Suitcase Listed for $17,000
TSMC’s limited-edition employee suitcase, made with Bayer’s aerospace-grade Makrolon, has resold for up to NT$500,000 ($16,100) on secondary markets. Distributed as a 2024 internal reward, its lightweight durability and branded design have fueled collector demand. Analysts attribute this to Asia’s luxury resale trends valuing rare corporate memorabilia and TSMC’s strong employer branding amid tech talent competition. Similar frenzy surrounded prior TSMC collectibles like mugs and snacks, reflecting its cult-like status. The phenomenon underscores how workplace incentives inadvertently create high-value commodities, blending engineering prestige with cultural symbolism in Taiwan’s tech circles.
