The sale of virtual items is big business these days. On Planet Calypso a virtual Egg (that is right an egg) known as the Atrox Queen Egg sold for $69,696.00 USD.
The virtual egg was sold by John Jacobs (NEVERDIE) in a public auction to David Storey (DEATHIFIER). Jacobs had last purchased the Atrox Queen virtual egg for $10,000 USD in the year 2006.
Chief Executive Officer Marco Behrmann of the First Planet Company (publisher of the Planet Calypso MMORPG) said “The sale of the Atrox Queen Egg is another example of the incredibly unique world and economy we offer in our game. While you don’t need thousands of dollars, or even tens of dollars to play Planet Calypso, it’s sales like these that truly separate our virtual world from any other on the planet”.
