Are you willing to spend $60,000 for a pair of jeans?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732) 5 years ago

The most valuable pair of jeans in the world is the 115-year-old Levi's 501 jeans which was bought for $60,000 by an anonymous collector in Japan. (source: guinnessworld records.com)

Am I willing to spend $60,000 for a pair of jeans? Absolutely NOT! Even if I have that much money, I would not. My most expensive jeans cost only $30.

How about you? Are you willing to spend $60,000 for a pair of jeans?

Ha! No way. Where would most of us get that kind of money? Some people money than they know what to do with I suppose.


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

yeah, maybe the person who bought that very expensive jeans don't know where to put his overflowing wealth. lol.

that's way expensive but come to think of it if I were a millionaire i probably would buy...i love jeans especially if it looks good on me. :)


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

you can't find an 115-year-old jeans anywhere, so maybe its really worth the price.

i think that's too much.. money is so hard to earn nowadays so better avoid buying things impulsively.. a lot of jeans out there are hundred or thousand cheaper than that $60,000 pair of jeans.. what for is the too expensive jeans?! that cant give me the total happiness im looking in my life.. lol.. if there's someone who'll buy such jeans, i bet she/he is CRAZY..


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

well, that's the price of fashion.

right now, no way! I have 2 kids and probably can use that $60,000 on their need...LOL...but if situation different, let say i were a millionaire probably i would consider to buy that.


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

Oh no! No way! If I had that much money spare, I would be helping out the poor and the needy! I am sure that is a better use of the money! And besides, I don't see using that much money to buy a pair of 115-year-old jeans, that's just not me. The most expensive jeans I have would be around $100USD and I would wear that for over 10 years, so that's worthed it and that's how much I am willing to pay for a pair of jeans.


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

that's real value for money, huh. or should I say frugal living?

NO WAY!! I'm not even willing to spend $60,000 on a car. My college tuition for all four years isn't even going to cost that much. A freakin pair of pants. What the heck.


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

its a vintage jeans, so probably the buyer thought it's worth that much. i won't buy that jeans too!


myLot reputation of 92/100. cheapterri (1079)  5 years ago

I guess if you have that kind of money to spend you can spend it on whatever you want. *Sigh*


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

yeah, to wealthy people, money is not an issue. they can get anything they want at any price. too bad, we belong to the opposite side. lol.

nope, how wasteful that is to my senses. Shoot, I would not even pay $60. now, I do not wear jeans as I wear skirts (or dresses) only however I do buy denim skirts and have not paid more than $30 on them, usually a bit less. I do buy jeans for my husband and son, but again, I do not usually exceed $25 on them, and usually only get them on sale for less than $15


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

Me too. I only buy jeans that are on sale. My most expensive pair is a Guess denim that I bought at 50% off.

Hell NO! hahahhaaaa I mean, personally, there are a lot of other ways to spend $60,000 on. But I guess, in a way, if you're really a big time collector, they'd be willing to spend that amount of money. After all, such rare collections indeed will have a huge return on its investment in the future. To each his own, I guess. But for me, as of this time, I can honestly say that no, I'm not willing to spend that amount in jeans. Heck, I don't even know where to find such big money! LOL


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

I, too, would rather donate that amount to charitable institutions.

I remember those jeans being for sale on ebay once, and they were asking DOUBLE the price for them...

If I had that kind of money nope, I could be debt free and have a down payment for a house!

I think someone is insane to spend that kind of money on jeans, but then collectors will sometimes spend large amounts of money on things because they collect them.

Mooch


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

For die hard collectors, vintage items are heaven for them. They're willing to pay any price for it.

That is not for me. I cannot even imagine anywhere near that figure.


myLot reputation of 99/100. neljan19 (732)  5 years ago

Me too. I don't even have 0.01% of that amount. All I have are coins in my wallet. LOL
