Mexican man Rogelio Villarreal had an extraordinary stroke of luck when he managed to snag a pair of luxurious Cartier earrings at a jaw-dropping 99 percent discount, bringing the price down to just a thousand rupees. This incredible deal was made possible due to an error on the Cartier website, highlighting the unusual nature of his purchase.

Cartier, known for its high-end jewellery, is often adorned by celebrities like Meghan Markle and Queen Camilla, adding to its allure and prestige. The official Cartier website lists the lowest pricing for their products at USD 590, translating to nearly ₹50,000, with higher-tier items reaching over 2.5 lakh USD.

In Rogelio's case, he scored a pair of Cartier earrings worth ₹11,67,730 for an unbelievable price of just ₹1,167. Taking to social media, he proudly displayed his purchase through mirror selfies showcasing the elegant gold earrings.

This remarkable discount was made possible by Cartier's oversight in the pesa to dollar conversion on their website, listing the earrings at 237 Mexican pesos instead of the correct 237,000 Mexican pesos. The error led to a massive discrepancy in pricing, allowing Rogelio to seize the opportunity and acquire a luxury item at an incredibly low cost.
