Interesting idea... It'd be awesome if you could place items as blocks to do this!
There's a mod that lets you put it on a three-stair (risugami?) but I was just thinking like, have a chest in an artificial cavern with the pick in it, with a wool mock-up of it behind it lit in torches or lava.
Like someone said earlier, it's probably just good luck. All unbreakable does is add a chance of your item not taking damage with each use. The higher the enchantment, the higher this chance, so it's perfectly possible that so far you've gotten very lucky and it hasn't taken enough damage to show yet. Very improbably, but perfectly possible. In any case, it happened legitly, so I personally would keep it.
Keep it, it costed you 3 diamonds.. So it's yours.
5 actually (two for the enchantment table), but yeah. If that is indeed an unbreakable pick (and I kind of doubt it, as that one guy said, you're just getting lucky with the pick uses), then that should be the last pick you will ever craft. It may have cost you something to make it, it will more than make up for it when you come across that next diamond vein.
Also, obsidian. Get tons of it. Efficiency 4 and 5 on obsidian takes about as long as it did to mine redstone in Alpha.
http://www.mediafire.com/?ncz6ea51zvmtmqj Heres the link to my world. You should spawn in a cheasy wooden house with a quickly thrown together shrine thing in it with a chest holding the pickaxe on it
Keep it, but be careful, because it will probably eventually start taking damage. You've got fortune 3 on it, so save it for the ores and things that can be broken with it. That way, it will never run out and you can have hundreds of diamonds!
That thing is unbelievable. I really wish i had that in my world because you wouldn't need any other tools, it breaks things at the same speed as the correct diamond tool and it never breaks.
I've tried it out, and, man, it does seem unbreakable. I mined like crazy, (built the biggest quarry known to mankind) and absolutely nothing. Keep it. It's a great axe and shovel, too. The last tool you will ever need. (aside from swords, of course)

Why am I here when I could be a productive member of society?
I enchanted a diamond pickaxe and got Forture 3 Efficency 4 Unbreakable 3
Ive had enchanted diamond pickaxes with unbreakable 3 and they have always taken damage, but this time my diamond pick doesent take any damage no matter how many blocks i break. I created it in survival, and i had no mods installed. Not sure if i should take advantage of this pickaxe or toss it to keep my world ligit.
Anyone ever get a indestructable pick before?
Awesome, I didn't know that was possible! Just do what you feel you should. If you feel cheap or dirty using it, then just keep it in a trophy room as a shrine to your 1337 enchanting skills :P. Would go great with an item stand/pedestal mod, just make sure you take the pick off and put it in a chest before you uninstall :D.
I got this untill i died, but i did not have the pick with me. when i got back to my house a creeper was there, and it destroyed my chest of dimond. The pick was was destroyed.

It WILL go down, unless that's a serious bug.
Legitly is short for Legitimately
