And the famous 5th Avenue store in New York swapped for $100 and a pearl necklace
That was famously purchased by Pierre Cartier in 1917 for a pearl necklace worth $1 million and $100 cash (this was before the cultured pearl came along; pearls then were as valuable as diamonds if not more so). The seller was millionaire Morton Plant who was moving uptown as the previously high-end residential midtown area gradually became the commercial area it is today.

Cartier on Rue de la Paix
I snapped this photo of the storied jeweler while visiting Paris last November. I did go inside, as well, and found the Staff to be very pleasant. I think this is their flagship shop - simply beautiful! This message has been edited by vsayeedi on 2010-03-...
