I don't know about the trashcan but I do know about Lockheed's infamous $500 toilet seat. In that case it was hand fabricated fibreglass that fit over the top of the tank where waste was held and what you would call the seat was attached to it. It actually cost more than $500 to manufacture but they got so much bad publicity that they dropped the price.
