An extensive Le Creuset cookware set with a four-figure price tag is up for sale at Costco.
Costco is charging $4,999.99 for the "Le Creuset Marseille 170-piece Ultimate Cookware Set" made by the wildly-popular French cookware brand.
That price gets those who buy the giant Le Creuset set a wide array of kitchenware that is "everything you need to set up your kitchen to be your own professional chef," per the listing for the set.
The 170-piece Le Creuset set "includes Cast Iron, Stoneware, Stainless Steel, Silicon, Wine tools, accessories and much more," according to the retailer.

The 170-piece set is the most extensive – and expensive – of the cookware sets currently listed on the Costco website. At its current cost, it equates to about $29 for each Le Creuset item in the set.
