A 'diamond dust' TV stand for $142,000

Finally, a media cabinet for the world's most expensive TV. Flatlift has created a suite of media furniture that includes 50 carats of "diamond dust" sprinkled throughout its finish.

The high-gloss cabinets include automated drawers designed to accommodate everything from media components to liquor. The dust supposedly flashes when illuminated, an effect matched only by the LED stripes that can "change colors according to your mood," according to BornRich.

And of course, as its name would imply, Flatlift has built in a motorized life the TV itself in the back of the central piece of the set, which totals about $142,000. That, by the way, is even more than the aforementioned "Yalos Diamond" TV, which listed for $130,000 when first reported last year. Which raises the question: If you spend that much money for a TV, do you really want to hide it in a cabinet?

First impressions

I'm sure it looks different in person, but the first thought that popped into my
head upon seeing this picture was, "The looks like a tool chest someone would
have in their garage." Probably not the look the purveyors of a $142,000 TV
stand were going for.

Well, I have recently purchased Bello AVS-2763HG TV stand from http://homefurnituresavings.com/index.php at a very cool price. The product is awesome. The price that I have paid is far less as compared to what other online furniture shops are charging for the same product. What I have got is really a Value for Money. Thanks for wonderful one-place furniture shopping virtual place. And what else FREE SHIPPING too wow!!
