Ginza Tanaka

Most Expensive Handbag

Just add glass slippers and a matching tiara, and you'll be ready for a royal ball!

Almost.

Rawlings

Most Expensive Baseball Glove

Ah, baseball, the great American pastime. Known for its freshly-mowed grass, players with a penchant for chewing tobacco and now -- a $400 glove? Though baseball has never been known to be a sport for the wealthy, Rawlings has begun producing the Primo glove, made of Italian leather into which a three-layer design is hand-sewn. It takes two whole days to make just one. True to superstitious form, however, most major league ballplayers have stuck to their tried and true worn-in gloves.

Koi

Most Expensive Sushi

Eating raw fish may seem like extreme eating to some people, but Koi Restaurant in Las Vegas is taking sushi to even greater extremes with its $1,000 High Roller sushi roll. The roll is made of marinated and poached fois gras covered with Langoustine (lobster), brushed with saffron/vanilla bean butter and encrusted with caviar. When the roll is served, the chef will personally come to your table to shave white Alba truffles over the roll and drizzle it with 100 year balsamic vinegar. Now that's good service.

Harvey-Nichols

Most Expensive Cocktail

The tasty-looking Dazzle cocktail from Harvey-Nichols Manchester is made of rose champagne and strawberry and lychee liqueur. But the real dazzle comes from the 18-karat white-gold ring with pink tourmaline and diamond stones you'll find at the bottom of the glass. Buying this drink will take you back to the days of eagerly searching your cereal box for that toy buried inside. Especially if your cereal happened to cost $51,200 and was delivered by two security guards.

Fissler

Most Expensive Saucepan

You don't need to be the Iron Chef to appreciate this pan from Fissler. With its solid gold handles studded with 200 diamonds, the saucepan seems more ready for an art display than the kitchen. The gold alone weighs two pounds, so the pan is probably heavier than your average cooking utensil. But if you shell out about $197,630 for this beauty, you probably won't want to be cooking with it anyway.

Most Expensive Coffee

The name Kopi Luwak comes from the Indonesian words for coffee and civet. Apparently civets only eat the best coffee cherries in Indonesia, and as the beans travel through the civets' digestive systems they lose their harshness and most of the caffeine, resulting in a mellow coffee bean that sells for as much as $600 a pound. But if drinking coffee that once passed through a small mammal does not sound appealing, Starbucks may still be your best bet.

Lloyd's of London

Most Expensive Nose

In wine making and tasting, the nose knows best. That's why Ilja Gort, a producer of wine in the famous Bordeaux region at Chateau de la Garde vineyard, had his nose insured for $8 million by Lloyd's of London. The insurance policy leaves Gort with several responsibilities, including not taking up boxing lessons or riding a motorcycle and having a high-quality barber with a steady hand trim his long, curly beard.
