Store Adds Donald Trump's Picture To $150,000 Gold-Encased iPhones (cnn.com)
An anonymous reader quotes CNN's report about an iPhone 7 "encased in solid gold, encrusted with diamonds and bearing the face of Donald Trump."
Priced around $151,000, it's just one example of the mind-blowing bling sold by Goldgenie, a store in the United Arab Emirates where the super rich do their shopping. "There are very wealthy, high-net-worth individuals all over the world and sometimes its very difficult to buy gifts for them because they have everything," said Frank Fernando, Goldgenie's managing director... But the phones are far from the most expensive item on sale. A gold-plated racing bike will set you back about $350,000.
If you're thinking no one would buy a $150,000 Trump phone, think again. In the last month, they've sold ten of them.

I guess all of the Hillary ones they had printed up earlier must be selling at a nice discount now!

Why would you want to buy a picture of something, when you already own the real thing . . . ?
