But if you don't have that kind of cash lying around, you can always turn to Alibaba.
The Chinese e-commerce site is selling a replica of the famous stainless steel sculpture for as little as $500 - .001% the price of the original, according to artnet.
The replicas, manufactured by Chinese-based VLA Sculpture, come in sizes ranging from "100 centimeters to 30 meters," though it's hard to imagine who would want a steel sculpture that's 98 feet long. (Koons' original, one of which is currently on display at the Whitney Museum, is a comparatively puny 10 feet long).
Prices on the website range from $500 to $5,000 depending on size, and purchases are limited to "10 units per month."
