I know it is not eBay but...

I was Googling something Raisondetre had mentioned in a different post and came across these beauties! Only $72,000 for the pair!

It is obviously a mistake but some of the comments are funny.

Wow Jeremy - what a bargain! I think I will take 2 pairs....

Seriously, whilst the price is an error, some of the narrative is still a bit of a stretch, don't you think?

Not to overlook Amazon's own reference of the species origin of Tahitian cultured pearls:

The natural black color of the Tahitian pearl comes from the black-lipped variety of the Pinctada maxima oyster.

I saw this beauty in the "comments" section, thats pretty funny!

I remember in my earing appreciation class at John Hopkins when my professor was writing his master thesis on earings and Islam and he had to describe the perfect earing

Hilarious!!!

 

[Raisondetre]

I actually made you google! Gasp! LOL The customer reviews are gold!

Since the $ is so low at present they will sell over here, no doubt.
Is it an error though - looks like they have been listed for at least three years?

It must be another stock photo and you probably won't even get the ones in the picture.

It's one zero mistake: on the AP website they stand as $ 7.200 (also a bit weard for the quality, it's half my car...but at least not my house...)

Hey, I think you could knock off another zero! At $720, that's just about right for good "stock quality" Tahitians, SI 1-2-3 diamond chip rubble and some gold. Oh alright, I'll be less critical and say $720 per earring for a grand total of $1440.

I think you're about right with the valuation there, Slraep.. nowhere near $7200!

Another problem solved by our Pearl-guide experts.
