$15k Japanese Melons
When you say Japanese Melons for $15k, what do you think? Silicon right? Not quite.
In 2008, two Yubari melons commanded ¥2.5 million (over US$30,000) and in 2007, two top grade melons fetched ¥2 million (around $25,000). But after the economy went south, so did the melon prices, hitting ¥500,000 ($6,000) for two top grade melons.
