Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has been a resounding success with back-to-back sold-out shows. Now a bizarre relic from one of her shows is up for sale on Depop, a resale website. This item is a pair of dried-up contact lenses “that have seen taylor swift eras tour” and is priced at $10,000 (approximately Rs 8 lakh and 22 thousand).
Selling a celebrity’s personal items is not rare. However, this time, the ‘overpriced’ item on sale is indirectly related to the artist.
