$400 to a few grand is a lot, too much to spend for a money clip in my opinion. I carry a coach magnetic money clip, but I imagine you wouldn't care for that. I think there is nothing more classic than a Tiffany and Co. sterling silver money clip. One of these days I'm going to get around to ordering one.

I used to use a magnetic money clip, but if I stuck a BART ticket in it or a credit card, that would be the end of the magnetic stripe. =(

Put your notes in your pocket of pants, you could have the pleasure of touching them all the day.

I've used a silver clip from Tiffany's, but found that silver wasn't really resilient enough, i.e., it deformed from too many bills. I was thinking about getting a silver paperclip to replace it, as I think it would last longer. Matt

Please be careful, -5pace.pirat3]+.  On December 11, 2004, in the early evening my solid gold money clip was dropped somewhere on Madison Avenue.  So great is my disgust with myself I cannot allow me to have another.

I've been able to forgive myself and have replaced with like, over the past 7-8 years, a Brigg umbrella and a silver Dupont lighter. Perhaps 3 1/2 months is sufficiently long for penance or, if superstitious, the object brought you good fortune (except, of course, for losing it).

I bought a fossil magnetic clip (leather) with card wallet attached to it. The magnetic clips are good for 0-10 bills. The "clip" clips are good for 5-20 bills. I also really like the card wallet -- it's handy for drivers license, credit card, etc. I think money clips are a good way to force you to keep your wallet organized. -boston

about $100-175(+8/25 for machine/hand monogram) or around $1000 for a gold one, says their website

i'm considering a versace sterling, the one i have now is steel and it doesn't have open/magnet mechanism, and now you can see in the middle where there's strain from a few too many bills/cards not to mention alot of little scratches and dents

Did you really just resurrect a 4 year old thread to shill for your product? At least be subtle about it.
