Think the iPhone’s expensive? You ain’t seen nothing yet. Imagine how much you’d have to pay if it was lovingly covered in red-grain leather. £400? Higher! £600? More!
£900? Bingo! Yep, UK etailer Goldstriker has announced that it’ll be selling 250 limited-edition leather-backed iPhones for £900 apiece. If you’re a cockney, that’s two monkeys minus four ponies. The company has previously become known for flogging all manner of mobile handsets (iPhones included) with bling gold-plating, but it seems leather is the new thing.
Flogging iPhones as luxury-items with a huge markup? I can’t believe Steve Jobs didn’t think of it first…
