Crap! If anyone buys this thing, we’ll all have to give back our $100 iPhone credits!
Remember last year when all us “early iPhone adopters” got together and cried poverty, shaking down Apple for a cool $100 rebate? Well, Austrian jeweler Peter Aloisson is about to blow the whole deal! If his $176,400, 17.75 carat iPhone sells, Apple has every right to come knocking on our doors demanding back that credit with interest!
Actually, word on the street is that Peter actually has already sold at least one of these to a nut job in Russia who pre-ordered one last October. What’s really crazy is, that guy was willing to pay $176,400 for the 8GB model, which was the only one available at the time! That’s an insane $22,050 per GB! Talk about a lack of respect for money! Hopefully more recent buyers will get a 16 GB model, bringing the cost per GB to a more reasonable $11,025.
Thanks to faithful Macenstein readers Min and Roman for the tip!

Um… why?
I’m not doubting you necessarily, I’m just confused.
This actually looks really nice! P.I.M.P
For the person who has everything else that screams, “I’m rich! Look at me!”
I’ll buy that for a dollar!! Actually looks pretty good. LOL
Well its their money, they can spend however way they want to.
