New virtual fashion: A bag that at the beginning of a game was priced at just $ 6 dollars or at 380 Robux, ended up being sold at almost double the price of what it cost in a real store

The virtual is in fashion and there are people who can pay a lot of money for an object of that type. A surprising virtual sale of a Gucci brand bag was made for the sum of $ 4, 115 dollars or 380, 04 Robux on the Roblox gaming platform.
The Gucci article was paid with virtual Roblox money, which is not even a cryptocurrency as such , it can only be used on the platform with the same name.
And we are not talking about a NFT or anything like that, which means that It has no value, it has no use, it is not interchangeable and outside of the Roblox platform you cannot do anything with said garment.
The item model is Gucci Dionysus and physically, in a real store, this has a cost of a little more than 2,000 dollars. This was announced on social networks.
A Gucci bag in Roblox resold for 350, 000 Robux or roughly $ 4, 115. The same purse IRL costs $ 3, 400.
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.

Although Roblox is a gaming platform, which allows playing and creating virtual games recently released the “The Gucci garden experience lands on Roblox”.
The Gucci Garden experience is a phenomenal showcase of the latest Roblox lighting technology and development tools. The Roblox engine enables a series of visually spectacular high fidelity environments with dynamic and custom textures and patterns for each visitor’s mannequin. Explain the platform that gives access to the game.
With this, the creators of the games could buy Gucci items to dress their characters. All this was done for the commemoration of the 80 years of the popular designer brand.
In general, it is said that the prices were reasonable, so the items did not last long. So later, there was a time for reselling some of the brand’s products and that is where the prices rose and they were even sold more expensive than the real product, in store.
For example, this bag was originally sold in as little as $ 6 or in 380 Robux.
This is one of the types of eccentricities that can happen with the sale of virtual items, price speculation will never be understandable and even less understandable, that someone spends money on a virtual object, which in this case can not even to exchange.
All this leads many to think, that of course they have faith and trust in this entire virtual financial world, that the future of fashion can be virtual , because people are getting more and more involved in virtual platforms. And not just for people who live in the “metaverse” world.
