Got millionaire?

You just might need one to buy the $77,999 Hermès Birkin Diamond Special Edition 25cm handbag currently being sold on eBay. You heard us.

Gulp. That's one big chunk of change for a used handbag.

Boasting sumptuous black crocodile skin, 5.72 carats of diamonds and 18-carat white gold details, the pricey arm candy marks the 25th anniversary of the iconic Birkin bag, which was last year.

So far just one offer has been made on the Hermès bag (best of luck, Victoria Beckham), but we're sure there's one fashionista out there with too much money on her hands.

In the meantime, we'll be asking our bank for an increased line of credit. Wish us luck!

Still have money to burn? Check out the world's most expensive suit.

Great article and photograph of this Hermes Kelly handbag...and glad to know about the auction price. Handbags design in our history is a significant art form. These fashion accessories have been status symbols for centuries and remain one of out culture icons along with belts, shoes, jewelry and wrist watches. Real alligator leather handbags like Hermes are very special and difficult to make. All Hermes handbags are custom orders and normally you wait about one year...why? Alligator leather is worked on the bench first wet and on a mold then carefully hand stitches together...if you do not want to pay $77,000 or even $12,000.00 for a real alligator handbag I recommend you visit http://www.alligatorproducts.com, which is an American owned alligator leather company that hand makes alligator leather handbags, belts, wallets, laptop cases and so forth. Thanks for this article.
