189. LeBron James Diamond Enriched Pendant Necklace

Manufacturer: Unknown Original Price: $ 5* (Supposedly) Worth Today: $10,000*

LeBron James is one of the most famous players in the NBA, and merchandise bearing his name and likeness sells for thousands of dollars. He is the first NBA player to earn US$ 1 billion while still playing. An Ohio woman claimed to have found a pendant set with $ 10,000 diamonds in the shape of James Cavaliers jersey # 23.

The buyer said she bought the pendant for just $ 5 at a garage sale, not realizing its value until she took it in to be appraised years later. She discovered it was worth thousands and tried to sell it on eBay. However, the pendant ended up being the subject of a jewelry theft investigation, so it was never successfully sold.
