“Look, you can keep the iPhone, my personal information, and my Temple Run achievements. Can I please just get the case back?”
I imagine that’s how the Find My iPhone message would read if the owner had the device wrapped in this Desert Edition Golden Dreams iPhone case. Embellished with Mississippi alligator leather and studded with 765 diamonds, the gold and black gold variations will each run you 18,500 Swiss Francs, or (currently) $19,139 U.S. dollars.
I guess that could explain why only five have been made of each model…and why Appletell didn’t get a review unit.
If 765 diamonds aren’t enough for you, Golden Dreams does have the Full Diamond Edition with 4,075 diamonds. You need to contact them to get the price on that one. And while you’re at, ask if they’ll transfer those diamonds to the iPhone 5 case when it’s assuredly announced with a different design this fall.

Not bad. I saw a gold plated iPad two days ago in the Bahrain airport for $24,000.
