Remember the limited edition Softbank 823SH Tiffany? Well, this ¥13 million worth phone has sold out in just three days after its release! Now 8 persons own such an eccentric handset.

It just goes to show you: even the global financial crisis is nothing compared to ones' wild caprices.

Who buys such phones anyway? This diamond-studded cellphone is the Softbank's new 823SH Tiffany, announced by the carrier in Japan.

Initially they plan to produce 10 of these and see how they'll sell. And now guess what the price will be -  ¥12.98 million, or around $131,097!

While $130K is a whole fortune, I'm pretty sure that someone will still by one.
