For Met lovers who desire a more consistent lighting experience, though, the Met Opera shop sells exact replicas of the chandeliers for prices ranging from $19,000 for a 24-inch chandelier to $83,000 for a 63-inch chandelier. Being a Met member pays off: Membership costs $85 a year, but with an automatic 10 percent member discount at the Met store, you can shave more than $8,000 off the list price.
