By price · Order from cheapest to most expensive.

1. A new big-budget video game at launch $70

   Adjusted for inflation, games are cheaper than ever: a Nintendo cartridge in the early Nineties often cost the equivalent of well over a hundred of today's dollars.

2. 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.

3. A new Ferrari 296 GTB $340K

   Ferrari deliberately limits production below demand — the company makes more profit per car than almost any automaker, and the waitlist is part of the product.

4. The Oppenheimer Blue, the largest fancy vivid blue diamond ever auctioned $57.5M

   Blue diamonds owe their color to traces of boron and form deeper in the Earth than almost any other gem — only a handful surface each year.

5. Andy Warhol's 'Shot Sage Blue Marilyn' silkscreen $195M

   The series got its name when a performance artist walked into Warhol's studio in 1964 and shot a stack of Marilyn canvases with a revolver.

6. Neymar's transfer from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain $263M

   PSG triggered his 'unbuyable' release clause in 2017, paying more than double the previous world record — a fee designed to be impossible.
