Those crazy Brits have done it again, only this time it&#8217;s a 24carat gold iPhone 5 case complete with 53 diamonds, yours for just $35,500.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\">Yep, you definitely read that figure correctly, so whilst you pick your jaws back up from the floor I will carry on with a few details for you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\">The cases are designed by designer Stuart Hughes, and there are apparently 100 of these cases set to go on sale. Stuart, from Liverpool (home of The Beatles) sold a one of a kind iPhone 4S gold case last year, for check this&#8230;\u00a36 million to a businesswoman from Australia.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\">Whether he will sell all 100 is another question, but with over 5 million sales recorded in the first weekend, it&#8217;s likely that people with a spare cent will want to get their hands on these. For me, I was contemplating whether it was worth shelling out a few hundred dollars for the iPhone 5 itself, let alone another $35k for a case!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\"><noscript><img
