A Gucci bag that exists solely in the virtual world managed to sell for more money than the IRL thing.<\/p>\n

On the gaming platform Roblox, one user coughed up 350,000 Robux \u2014 or roughly $4,115 \u2014 for a Gucci Dionysus bag, even though it has no monetary value outside the Roblox world (the real purse retails for $3,400).<\/p>\n

Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian weighed in on the news. “Remember: this Roblox purse is not an NFT and thus has no value\/use\/transferability outside the Roblox world-yet it’s worth more than the physical one. Watch this space,” he tweeted.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
