850 pounds?  Eat your heart out, Thorin Oakenshield.  Although to be sure, it could do with a bit of polish.

[Creamcorn]

850 POUNDS!

Holy fuckin shit. If I owned it, I'd try to have sex with it.

[MMad]

Heh. That looks like something you really *could* make a bed out of.

Albeit a very uncomfortable bed.

[Kardos]

I don't know.  They tried to sell a 370 million dollar emerald for 75 million. 
We should drown the lot of 'em in a magma pool and put the emerald in the center of a monument dedicated to the greatness of Dwarf Fortress.

[Rilder]

Albeit a very uncomfortable bed.

I'd sleep in that bed.

[Cheeetar]

Wait wait wait. 850 pounds is about $3000/$2000 dollars right? I would buy that if I had the money.

[The Doctor]

No, that's how much it WEIGHS.

It's WORTH 371 million dollars.

[LegoLord]

Wait wait wait. 850 pounds is about $3000/$2000 dollars right? I would buy that if I had the money.

Clearly you are not familiar with the English measuring system.  That is not surprising.  It is a backwards, old system from not long after the medieval period.  The only people still clinging to it are those stupid, backwards, Americans from the U.S.

You mean a significant deal of the B12 forum goers? I don't blame you, beside you're not the first to complain about our way of measuring... at least I get bigger bottles of soda here.

[Random832]

For the record, for those who genuinely don't understand what a pound is, 850 pounds = 386 kilograms.

[G-Flex]

Are we sure that's even a single emerald? It looks like there are several individual crystals in it. It could just be an 850-pound rock filled with smaller emeralds or something. I'm not sure.

[Duke 2.0]

 850 pounds?

 

 Egads, the owner must have bloody stumps for arms by now!

[JoshuaFH]

Oh shit, from the looks of things, this is probably gonna end up like The pearl.

Anyone familiar with the book will know what i mean.

[Aqizzar]

I love that they announce it's being kept in a "warehouse" in Las Vegas.  The perfect place to keep an emerald the size of an armchair.

I swear to god, if their is some sort of legendary criminal that pulls of the most epic heist of all time and gets away with a 850 pound emerald and gets outta the country. I know who to fucking worship now.
