Most Expensive Items on Amazon

The Top Ten Most Expensive Items on Amazon - Are Very Good Investments

[UPDATE : There is a new number one on the most expensive items on Amazon list ! Three times more expensive than the previous most expensive ! And when you see what the most expensive items are, you will see that they do in fact represent very good investments that may even increase in value over time !]

I was editing my wonderful hub on the most expensive watch in the world this morning - Franck Muller Watch - and musing on how strange this planet is where some people are willing to spend $2.7 million on something to know what time it is, whilst others such as myself have never owned a watch and never will, when I noticed something odd.

I had added an Amazon capsule to the aforementioned hub when I saw that one of the items that Amazon was displaying was a watch that was being offered at what seemed to me to be the ridiculous price of $92,799.93 yes, over $92,000 for a watch on Amazon! What was even more remarkable was that it had been reduced from the previous price of $145,000 - a saving of $52,200.07 cents ! And it ships for free with super saver shipping !

Well I was amazed, but maybe that just shows how little I know about Amazon. I had always assumed that it sold everyday sort of stuff. Computers, DVDs, a few handbags and shoes and household products etc... I had never imagined that you could buy a $92,000 watch over Amazon by just typing in your credit card details.

This set me wondering as to if this watch was the most expensive item on Amazon or if there were other even more expensive things that you could actually buy on Amazon, as opposed to things with ridiculous prices such as the CA DESKTOP MIGRATOR 2007 LARGE BOX ECOMMERCE 1U on offer for $1,293,600.00, and a Queen Anne Cast Iron Table Base: Standard Height: 28.5" for the modest sum of $1,724,998.28 - the customer reviews are well worth a read but it is clear these prices are incorrect.

I therefore set out to discover the most expensive items on Amazon which I have listed below in reverse order - from cheapest to most expensive. I have also put up a poll so that you can try and guess how much the most expensive items are before you actually see the prices.

The following list therefore shows the most expensive items I could find on Amazon that appear to be genuine items and that appear to be genuinely on sale - so if you want to buy yourself one or two then just click on the links and knock yourself out ! If you know of anything more expensive then please let me know, I had a good look around but I can't guarantee that there aren't others lying in some unexplored corner.
