My question is, what do you DO with it? You wouldn't use it, it's not exactly a nice decoration...

Seriously. You probably wouldn't kick it around... put it on a stand and display it somewhere, maybe? I can think of much better things to spend $400 on than that, but whatever floats some people's boat. :confused:

It's not Louis Vuitton though. Just says it was made but a designer who worked for Louis Vuitton or had some fame designing for Louis Vuitton.

What a complete waste of money. You'd have to have rocks in your head to pay that for a soccer ball...and an ugly soccer ball at that.

I did pay $75 for an official NFL gameball though once.

when you're rich (or just a fraudulent poseur) you buy things made buy murakami and pretend you know good design.

You could get a bunch of 5th graders to do about the same thing and it would only cost you $5 for soft drinks and chips! ;)

You can't get the same functionality from an under fifty dollar video card. Not the case with the four hundred dollar ball.
