Danny, since you live under a rock:
Normal--buy a Bic pen, $0.59
Uber stylish--buy a MontBlanc pen for $250.00
Normal--buy a Timex watch, $18.99 (or just look around--clocks everywhere!)
Uber stylish--buy a Piaget watch, $24,000.00
Normal--buy a tent, $29.99. Drive to campsite in your Honda Civic.
Uber stylish--buy a teardrop for $24,000.00. Drive to campsite in your 4WD Hummer--$$$
Sundance catalogue used to have artisan type crafts and jewlery and reasonable prices. Haven't looked at one in a while, but I'll build 'em trailers as configured for 12 grand a pop and they can still mark it up and make a profit. It would be interesting to know how large a market they have at that price, and if it is a large market, I would love their mailing list!

Still graced with two eyes and ten fingers (due in no small part to luck!).
Just when you think a problem is solved, an uglier result replaces it.
