Okay, I guess they're not endangered

But only because it's too late for us to endanger mammoths much.

Fossilized mammoth ivory scrimshawed bracelets, $800 each.

They're a tad over the top, aren't they? Tacky is a word that springs to mind, which is quite sad. I've seen proper scrimshaw and they look a lot nicer than that. Seems to me a waste of ivory, although why it can't be left in the ground is beyond me.

Tacky is being generous IMO but then the name of the site says it all really. More money than brains.

This is true: Fashionista! I mean, really! How long did they take to think that up?! I bet they were really chuffed with themselves as well. *g*
