GTA VI Fans Battle at Auctions for Vice City-Themed Paper Bags and Cups - Paying Hundreds of Dollars for Them
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Entrepreneurs are monetizing interest in the franchise.
The release of Grand Theft Auto VI is approaching, and a marketing campaign is unfolding in the real city of Miami — the prototype of Vice City. Recently, a real-life version of Burger Shot (the fast-food chain in the GTA world) was launched there.
Not all fans of the franchise have the opportunity to visit the city and acquire souvenir merchandise for their collection. Some entrepreneurs decided to take advantage of this. Auctions began to be held on eBay.
Players started bidding to acquire items such as foam fingers with the “Vice City” logo — one lot sold for over 500 dollars (more than 40 thousand rubles as of October 26). There are also more “modest” offers: ads for sale at 80 – 300 dollars are found, but the price can significantly increase during bidding.
In addition, bidding is even taking place for stylized Burger Shot packaging. A used paper bag for french fries with the characteristic logo is being bought for over 150 dollars — bidding is actively underway for similar lots. A used Cluckin' Bell cup is also for sale — the cost can reach 400 dollars.
Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled for release on November 19, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles.
