When a copy of Super Mario Bros sold for $114,000.00 early in the month it was thought to be a record price paid for an individual video game but an investment company called Rally had, months earlier, already purchased a copy in similar condition for $140,000.00.
Rally which bills itself as The stock market of collectibles, make a business out of buying rare expensive collectibles and high end consumables that they calculate will increase in value, then go on to sell individual shares of maybe $50 that users can then resell on their website platform where the shares are tracked in a similar fashion to the stock market. How big a bubble is being blown here? Via: arstechnica
