Here’s a bizarre one for you; a Brazilian man stole something worth 4-grand from a luxury sex shop…an 18-carat gold-plated vibrator.

Here’s the catch, he didn’t take the charger, and he probably won’t be able to get the gold plating off of the item. Oops.

My first question is; Who decided to make a $4,000 gold-plated vibrator in the first place?!

According to Yahoo News, the armed man who stole the thing walked into Erotica Luxo, tied up the clerk, stole the item from a display case, and left. He didn’t take anything else. Not even cash or the charging unit for the vibrator. And the shop owner said,

The robber might get no satisfaction from Wednesday's theft…the Swedish-made vibrator has a stainless steel core, making removing any gold plating extremely difficult.

So, basically this guy made off with a phallic, $4,000 paperweight. He shouldn’t be able to strip the gold off of it, and he can’t charge it to use. I can’t think of anything else he’d want it for other than to use it or sell it…maybe I’m just not imaginative enough.

I’m wondering if we’ll see a post on the Brazilian equivalent of Craigs List soon for a non-working gold-plated vibrator.
