$129 for a Prince Charles and Princess Diana bottle of coke?
Prince William and Kate Middleton just got engaged and shortly thereafter so did his cousin Zara Phillips.

It's perhaps not surprising then that the royal craze has already begun.

Websites have started selling off royal wedding souvenirs, because who wouldn't want commemorative royal china reminding us of their wedding, every time we eat?

This prompted us to search around the internet for some of the lingering souvenir items from the last royal wedding between Prince Charles and Princess Diana -- and how much people were willing to pay for it.

Would you pay $129 for a Prince Charles and Princess Diana bottle of coke? No? What if it came in a satin box?

1. Hell, America's at $1,000,000,000 and counting, for one George H. W. Bush busted rubber.

That makes a $129 bottle of Coke sound like a bargain!

4. You're missing about six zeroes
But you're right, if GHWB wasn't such a fan of gas station rubbers none of the last eight years ever would have happened.

3. For that money it should come with an 8 ball.

5. Outrageous. For that kind of money, I could get a "Big Mouth Billy Bass" to hang in each room!
AND have enough left for a small, tasteful Velvet Elvis...
