  |  Million dollar rims by Asanti. -
11-05-2005, 03:35 AM
  Eric found this set three-piece forged wheels from Asanti that carry a cool $1,000,000 price tag. They rival the similarly priced diamond-studded Victoria’s Secret bra as the most impractical item ever to cover with expensive gems. Featuring over 12,000 diamonds and 800 sapphires totaling 1,100 carats of precious stones, these wheels roll with almost enough jewelry to satisfy Donald Trump’s new wife, Melania.

That is just so completely crass. Actually, I have just been looking at some auction results from Sotheby's, as I take a great interest in fine objets d'art, This wonderful gold, silver and enamel, Fabergé cigarette box sold for US$1,024,000 last Thursday (over twice it's estimated value) - and unlike those ghastly rims, it will likely hold it's value.  I know what I'd rather own. |

What you need to understand here is that you are not parying for the rims, instead you are paying for the diamonds. Remove them and the rims will only be worth 5k. I can more or less glue diamonds on to a cardboard bow and it will be worth hundreds of thousands of dollar.s Roberto: Cool cigarette box but since I'm a non-smoker I prefer their eggs. |
