Damien Hirst's Diamond Skull Available For 25,000,000% Off
 

Damien Hirst is about to collect more than $125 million when some 223 works of his original overpriced, carbon-based pieces go on sale at Sotheby's London, making him the wealthiest living artist ever by conveniently bypassing those greedy art dealers who snap up half the sale price. (At auction, the buyer pays Sotheyby's commission on top of the sale price.) Which is why there's no need to support the man and his ridiculous ambitions, like that "$100 million" diamond skull. So don't. Instead, buy this $25 version from that equally obnoxious mall store. [Z Gallerie via BBM]
