"Typically, I'll sell between two and six shelters a month - and usually winter is a quiet time for us. But I sold five units alone on Thursday, and I've sold two more already today - there's no telling how many more [orders] we will get. The phone hasn't stopped ringing and we've been sending out so many quotes,” added Lynch.
“The phone hasn’t stopped ringing and we’ve sent out so many quotes, the interest isn’t just isolated to the US, it’s everywhere,” he said. The Texas-based bunker company has now received inquiries from countries like the USA, UK, Italy Denmark, Japan, and Canada.
The company's bunkers are hidden 11 feet under the ground and have their grow rooms for food, fitness centers, lifts, sauna, theatres, laundry rooms, and more. The bunkers are fit for all types of aesthetics and resemble home. It has comfy furniture and painted walls combined with a bunk bed styling fit to accommodate maximum people. The expensive bunkers come with their own pool and an inbuilt theatre.
Lynch said that people fearing the war is justified after Putin threatened for a nuclear war, claiming “It would be something the world has never seen.”
He continued, “The world has seen Hiroshima and if what they are threatening is worse than that then, by all means, we should all be worried.”
Referring to the critics, Lynch said, “Don’t make fun of or criticize people that have valid fears. They want nothing more than to protect their loved ones in a terrible, terrible time. The only way you can prepare yourself to fail is by not preparing,” he added.
Five units were sold on the day Russia started with the invasion ranging between $70,000 to $240,000.The company's base bunkers start at $40,000 and can reach up to million-dollar sums, depending on the client's demand.
