This post takes a good look at seven of the most expensive items that have been listed on Amazon in recent history.
7. Oriental Silk Handmade Rug, $10,388

3. Daum Crystal Blue Horse Magnum Vase, 3 Silvered Heads, $48,600
This stunning Daum Crystal Blue Horse Magnum Vase with Three Silvered Heads may appear to be an extravagant item of home décor – and that is because it is!
When available on Amazon it was priced at a massive $48,600. That hefty price tag was because Daum Crystal is currently the only commercial crystal company still using the pâte de verre (glass paste) technique for art glass and crystal sculptures.
This technique is an intricate process that results in translucent and even opaque coloring, creating a real one-of-a-kind sculpture. Therefore, if you’re sitting on this kind of cash, you might want to keep an eye out for more Daum Crystal on Amazon.

The ball is worth a little over $120,000 with authenticity provided by PSA. It’s definitely a prize for collectors out there who want some fast shipping if they can spare over a hundred grand on it.
