MySpace Friends Worth About a Penny Each on Ebay

Posted on February 16, 2007

A MySpace account is for sale on eBay with 100,000 friends. There has only been one bid for this MySpace account at $1,800. If you do the math that translates to 1.8 cents a friend.

If you run a search for MySpace accounts you will find a couple dozen MySpace accounts for sale with various levels of friends. These auctions listed below are ones that actually have bids.

An auction of over 30,000 friends is going for $175 (.6 cents a friend)

An auction of 25,000+ friends is going for $101 (.4 cents a friend)

An auction for over 10,000 friends is going for $31 (.3 cents a friend)

It's silly stuff but looking at these eBay auctions you come away with a vague notion that MySpace friends are worth about 1 cent each or less. The auctions with more MySpace friends appear to be getting a little more value per friend than the smaller auctions.
