Missed out on the 10.54-caret diamond ring ($550,000), the vintage Rolex watch ($67,500), Steinway grand piano ($42,000) or the pair of embroidered velveteen slippers ($6,000, including a used pair of socks and monogrammed boxer shorts) sold in the liquidation auction of Bernie Madoffs possessions?
Youre in luck: For the low price of $250 (and up), you can buy an iPad case made out of his old pants (thats American pants trousers to some of you).
New York-based Frederick James, which recycles vintage clothing (rescued fabrics) and fashions it into iPad covers, got its hands on some Madoff duds and has resurrected them into the (obviously) limited edition cases. Word has it cases made from a Christian Dior sweater and Bergdorf Goodman cardigans belonging to Madoff ($500 each) have already sold out.
For those in doubt, the cases come with certificates of authenticity, upon request.
