The materialistic but fine folks over at BornRich spotted this interesting eBay listing for an 80″ glass holographic TV. The expensive HDTV set uses holograms to project it’s images into a sheet of custom cut glass. The glass is designed to trap light from a certain angle, allowing images to be projected onto it, but allows other light through.

It appears that the seller had trouble getting people interested at a price of £5,500. Logically, this means that if he raises the price to £8,000, it’s bound to sell! It’s been relisted over at eBay UK.

In other obscenely opulent television news, LG & KeyMat took the less technologically interesting but more traditional route. Rather than fiddle about with “holograms” and “glass”, they busted out the old school luxury - diamonds and guns gold.

The Yalos Diamond TV is covered in 20 carat diamonds, presumably to match someone’s tacky-ass Sidekick. The LG 71″ HDTV on the other hand went with 24k gold plating for that nouveau-riche trailer-trash look. Watching Nascar with Paris Hilton has never been quite this retarded.

That’s it for this week’s episode of ‘Rich People: They’re Just Plain Better Than You’. Tune in next week for the first part of our ninety-two episode series about celebrity bidets.
