By price · Order from cheapest to most expensive.

1. A pair of white Nike Air Force 1 sneakers $110

   Released in 1982 as a basketball shoe, the Air Force 1 still sells millions of pairs a year — virtually unchanged in design for four decades.

2. A Nintendo Switch Lite console $199

   Nintendo has a history of durable hardware: the original Game Boy survived a Gulf War bombing and still works, on display at Nintendo New York.

3. A PlayStation 5 console $500

   The PS5 sold out so fast at launch during the pandemic that scalper bots became a news story — resale prices briefly doubled the sticker.

4. A new Rolex Submariner at retail $10.8K

   For years the waiting lists were so long that used Submariners sold above new ones — an inversion almost unheard of in luxury goods.

5. A Rolls-Royce Phantom, before options $517K

   Each Phantom's 'Starlight Headliner' is hand-threaded with hundreds of fiber-optic stars — buyers can order the exact night sky from a date of their choosing.

6. Stan, one of the most complete T. rex skeletons ever found $31.8M

   After the record 2020 sale, Stan's whereabouts were a mystery for years — he eventually surfaced as the future star of a new natural history museum in Abu Dhabi.
