After 10 days of bidding for three digital malls in the virtual world Project Entropia, buyers ponied up a shocking total of $179,668. According to a press release from MindArk, the Swedish company that publishes Project Entropia, two buyers won the three auctions: Onkel RobRoy Bob, who bought two of the malls, and Epsilon Eps Vaz, who purchased the third.
There we have it… people really will pay anything for anything. Seriously, $180K for a virtual property? No matter how I look at it, I have to feel sorry for the people who pay this, since they obviously have no life.
