$400,000 T-shirt: Wash with Care


You can appreciate the irony: a T-shirt that costs $400,000 is made, the company wants you to know, from renewable energy sources.
That's the word from the aptly named Superlative Luxury, which has lovingly crafted a shirt with 16 diamonds attached. Eight are white. Eight are black. All weigh more than 1 carat. 
Still have the money in your checking account? Have a big credit limit on a credit card? This one's for you. Be the first (and potentially only) one on your block to sport this uber-bling.
It might cost you a bit more than you think, however, especially if you pay on credit, because even though you've paid, you don't get the shirt for a month — because, the company says, they need that time to lovingly craft each and every shirt. (And you can be sure that the demand for this item will be so high that the back orders will be piling up.)
The warranty on this item is a full year, which should be long enough to get your money's worth, unless you decide to store it in a safe or behind a glass frame on a wall somewhere. But beware: You won't be able to get a refund. Your many happy returns won't include getting your money back, no matter how much you suffer buyer's remorse.
