£299,995 :eek:

over the top, yet you know someone wil purchase it, just seems crazy to have one, maybe keep it tp aquire value in 20 years.

What do you buy the gamer who has everything this Christmas? It’s a toughie, but we think we have the ideal suggestion – the Wii Supreme.

Jeeeeeez. Who would actually buy that though?!

Nice couple of stocking fillers there

But rarest and most expensive of all is the iPhone 3GS Supreme, which is laden with 271 grams of 22ct solid gold, 53 flawless diamonds on the back, 63 on the front and a massive 7.1ct dazzler where the button should be. Assuming you ever dare press it, that is. And we doubt you will, given its £1.92 million price tag.

How much!? £1.92 Million :eek:

"Yes... yes I think I will take the insurance..."

300k for bling from Liverpool? Wow, that must be at least 3million retail.

Completely pointless, it'd be covered in dust in a week like my PS3 is lol.

vanandjuanunited · 17 Dec 2009 at 23:16

i read that as £299.99 and thought no thanks til i read the article :eek:

Nice, I can have a dust covered gold one right next to my other cheaper dust covered one.

Andelusion · 17 Dec 2009 at 23:20

I'm sure some arabs with tonnes of money to throw at anything diamond/gold covered will buy it.

dowie · 17 Dec 2009 at 23:21

tbh.. probably some very rich arab or russian

I don't see the point in these things gold laptops, iphones etc...- even if I was a multi millionaire who'd say blow 300k on a piece of art work or something without blinking I'd not spend that amoubt on technology that I'd need to replace within a few years...

the only people for whom this makes sense are the people for whom 300k would be the amount of money they'd be happy to say blow in one night on say a craps game at the ritz casino etc...

How dull. What's impressive about some precious metals/stones being fashioned into a games console and being given a large price tag (which is probably far more than its material worth)?

This isn't the guy that was on Dragon den is it? That plated the iphone in gold etc?

The queen has one of those.

No, really.

samir_ansari · 18 Dec 2009 at 00:03

With a price tag like that I would want the equivelant of the MSWord paperclip popping out of every game and giving me a hand with shooting bad guys.

Angilion · 18 Dec 2009 at 00:35

Oh wow, a cheap games console covered in shiny metal and very small polished rocks. That is so worth £300,000.

Pestilence · 18 Dec 2009 at 00:42

The question is.....do they also sell gold Wiimotes to go along with it?
