Christmas shopping?

Postby Ouchyfish » Sat Dec 24, 2005 4:02 am

Since Christmas is just around the corner we thought why not look at some of the real but crazy and expensive gifts you could buy this year. We call it our 'Seven Gifts You Won't Get For Christmas'.

Let's start off with an accessory. Incase you're looking for cigarette lighter, consider Zippo's a solid gold lighter. This 18-karat gold lighter for $3,500 is sure to burn your pocket. Acutally, perhaps the accessory you've been looking for is a new iPod case - what about a diamond-studded case that features 586 diamonds on white gold and protects your iPod for only $12,500.

Or maybe candies and sweet tooth items are more your flavour. If so, there's always the $175 crystal PEZ candy dispenser, available with the face of some of your favorite cartoon figures and comes in its own suede pouch.

On the other hand, possibly fashion is more your style. How about Victoria Secret's $12.5 million bra encrusted with 2,900 diamonds, rubies and other precious stones. Then there's always the new $250,000 Paris Hilton Watch — with a mosaic of 1,026 gems, including six carats of yellow diamonds on its face.

Speaking of fashion, if the plain look of your PC is getting to you, there's the "Bentley" of personal computers by VoodooPC. The entire shell of this PC is dipped in 24K gold, and costs about $15,000, depending on your taste.

To round out the list, if you see your popularity or ego dipping, it may be time for a personalised action figure. For $425, Herobuilders will sculpt a 12-inch version of yourself, complete with muscles, tattoos, earrings, and clothing.




Captain Insano action figure complete with flamethrower?

that would be tight if there was a website where you sent in a pic of yourself and told them what kind of action figure you wanted to be (GI Joe, Transformer, etc.) and they made one in your image....

    Things like this make you go, "Wow, if I actually WAS rich, the shit I could buy is just dumb."

    Stealing $10+ million dollar objects from a 100lb woman would just about even me out on the "karma scale". You've been warned :wink:
