I wish the article specified whether downloadable images of pizza actually sold for thousands of dollars or whether they were simply listed for that much. Like I can put my toenail clippings up on eBay with a $1000 price tag but it doesn't mean people are buying them.
Holy shit this is such a pet peeve of mine.
Go to "completed listings," you tool.
Probably Just someone trying to scam someone else out 1k. Just like those PS5 2k eBay listing that was just a print out image.
Art is used for money laundering. Digital art on Etsy is just a new incarnation of something people have been doing for a long time.
If I owe you a $1000 for drugs you fronted me, I'd buy your clippers, eBay would take a cut, and your money is now laundered.
