Barbie

Barbie
Little girls love to play with Barbies. They can dress them up, take them swimming, change their clothes- until their older brother cuts off all of her hair, or your dog runs off with one of her legs. With most barbies retailing from $10- $20 dollars, the loss of one is hardly the end of the world. But if you are in procession of the Barbie by Stefano Canturi, then the loss of her would be tragic because she would have cost you $302,500 dollars. Draped in diamond jewelry, and a wearing a black cocktail dress, this barbie sold at an auction for a record setting price. Stefano Canturi donated 100% of the profits from the sale of this doll to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation, which makes the high price tag much more acceptable. [Photo via]
