Each stuffed bird also has a crystal-encrusted head and is further complemented by 24 ct gold-coated mesh, silk, ribbons, and crocodile-skin rosettes. Plus every pair comes with special protective crocodile or snakeskin platforms that attach before you wear them to keep the shoes from ever touching the ground. All for just

I copied this right off AOL ...unbelievable! I'm flabbergasted. But it got worse. They showed a diamond-encrusted pen that had over 30 carats of diamonds on a solid platinum barrel for just under $2 million and a Diamond iPhone surrounded by diamonds which featured a 6.6 carat diamond for $2.45 million! Oh and did I mention the 24 karat gold life- size statue of Kate Moss with her legs wrapped around her head for $2 million? (It was so disturbing I couldn't post the photo).
