Distinctive Assets declined to disclose the exact market value of all of the products, telling ABC News that each bag is worth more than six figures.

"A great gift has nothing to do with the retail value," Distinctive Assets founder Lash Fary said in a statement. "For years we have been breaking one of the cardinal rules of gift giving by disclosing the price tag. Instead, we are trying to start a new tradition by simply celebrating the fun and festive nature of this legendary gift bag."
