(Radio.com) During a recent podcast interview with writer Brett Easton Ellis (Less Than Zero, American Psycho), Kanye West took a swing at popular online retailer Zappos and its' CEO, Tony Hsieh, saying the company sells "s*** product."

"I got into this giant argument with the head of Zappos that he's trying to tell me what I need to focus on," West related during the interview about a recent meeting with Hsieh in Las Vegas (via E!). "Meanwhile, he sells all this s�t product to everybody, his whole thing is based off of selling s*** product."

Not one to take such criticism lying down, Hsieh and Zappos made like Nas going in on Jay Z with the legendary diss track "Ether" and fired back at the "Black Skinhead" rapper, albeit in humorous fashion.

A tongue-in-cheek Tweet from Zappos stated, "Kanye West says Zappos sells s*** product. It's true," with a link to Zappos.com Gear S*** Product, featuring a picture of a toilet with a plunger in it going for a cool $100,000.

The items description is filled with comedic references to West: "Interested in buying sh-t product? You've come to the right place! Here at Zappos.com, we happily sell s*** products to everybody! This is the throne, everyone has been watching. Whether you're #1 or #2, your clique will show no mercy, even in Paris." Hsieh also tweeted out the listing personally. more on this story
