This was a topic that was brought up the other day on TheSpeedoForum.com which I wasn’t aware of.

These speedos (worn by the British Diving team at the London Olympics) recently sold on eBay for 510 pounds – about USD$800.  Holy moly!!!!

Would you ever pay that much for a speedo?  Too rich for my taste.  I think I should go and get a bunch of these made up and then I could quit my day job.

Here are some pics of Tom Daley (British Diver) who made these speedo famous, expensive and famously expensive.
