I don't really know who would want to buy a diamond-encrusted computer mouse, and I certainly can't imagine how much a product like that would cost. Does anyone know if there really is a diamond-encrusted product like that out there on the market? Has anyone actually purchased it?

Yes, there is at least one diamond-encrusted computer mouse on the market. The one that I'm familiar with is called the Diamond Flower computer mouse and it was created by Swiss manufacturer, Pat Says Now, which specifically manufactures fashionable computer accessories such as mice and laptop sleves. This diamond mouse is sold on a few luxury websites,including the Pat Says Now website, and can most likely be found in a handful of luxury boutique stores. In one version of the mouse, 75% of the parts encasing the mouse, including the buttons, are made of rhodinized white gold. There is also a yellow gold version of the mouse. 58 round brilliant diamonds that are 2mm in diameter and 1 round brilliant diamond that is 4mm in diameter are separately set below the buttons to create the shape of a lily. The total weight of the diamonds amounts to two full carats. Not only is the mouse shiny and sparkly, but it is also technologically advanced. It features an 800dpi optical sensor which makes it easy to use and conveniently accurate. In case you are worried that it might break, there is a three year manufacturers warranty, so that shouldn't be a big concern. The concern should be the overall price, which is a whopping $ 23,250! Plus, you'd have to match it with something just as diamond-y, no? I mean, how could you possibly invest in a diamond encrusted mouse if your computer isn't just as dazzling?
