By price · Order from cheapest to most expensive.
- A one-day adult ticket to Disney World's Magic Kingdom $140
When Disneyland opened in 1955, admission was one dollar — rides cost extra, paid with lettered coupons that gave us the phrase 'an E-ticket ride.'
- An Apple Vision Pro headset $3.5K
Each Vision Pro contains more pixels in its two tiny displays than a 4K television — packed into screens roughly the size of postage stamps.
- A French Bulldog puppy from a breeder $4.5K
Frenchies can't swim and most can't give birth naturally — nearly all are delivered by C-section — yet they became America's most popular breed.
- A brand-new Toyota Corolla $23K
With over 50 million sold since 1966, the Corolla is the best-selling car nameplate in history — one has been sold roughly every 30 seconds for decades.
- The finest-known Mickey Mantle baseball card from his rookie era $12.6M
The 1952 Topps card sold in 2022 became the most expensive piece of sports memorabilia ever — countless others were dumped in the ocean by Topps in the Fifties.
- 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.
