The Bernie Madoff….iPad Sleeve? 0

With Bernie Madoff locked up tight, his personal items have been fair game for anyone with money. Now, even his clothes are being sold but not the way you would expect.

FrederickJames.com recently sold out of iPad sleeves made out of Bernie Madoff’s pants. John Vaccaro, the New York based entrepreneur who purchase 16 pairs of Madoff’s pants in the auction last fall, converted these J. Crew, Banana Republic, and Ralph Lauren trousers into 31 limited edition sleeves for The Bernie Madoff Collection.

Each sleeve sold for a whopping $250-350 dollars and are all gone.

So what makes these sleeves so good other than the fact that they came from the infamous Bernie Madoff? Well, that’s basically it. Since they are made of fabric and only fastened by a button, they won’t exactly protect your $500+ electronic from test of gravity. Of course, these are limited editions and could fetch a pretty penny in a few years.

So, if you are looking for an interesting piece of history to gently swaddle your iPad in, check out Vaccaro’s website on Monday. All of the sleeves are sold, but you may get lucky and snatch up a sleeve from a cancelled order. So Madoff collectors, cross your fingers and log on to their website Monday here!
