Beyoncé fan sells her sunglasses for 15k

[Teletubby 113,306]

A lucky Beyoncé fan is auctioning off the singer's sunglasses for £15,000 after catching them at her Tottenham Hotspur Stadium gig.
They are set to fetch up to £15,000 at Omega Auctions, despite Off White sunglasses usually retailing at about £200.

The seller, called Valentino, previously went viral on TikTok after sharing a video with the glasses.   Beyonce tossed the sunglasses into the crowd whilst performing her song, Diva. They were then confiscated by security, but later in the Renaissance tour show, Beyoncé threw the glasses back into the crowd. 

Other fans have slammed Valentino for re-selling the sunglasses, with one commenting: 'Traitor.'

sad...she got a one of a kind moment in her life and she's throwing it away for money.

indeed, sad. Only way this would be okay if the fan really is in need of money. 

Inb4 someone says "then they wouldn't have bought an expensive ticket in the first place", people with financial problems deserve leisure as well.

i'd sell gaga sunglasses for £15k tbh  i could invest that and grow my wealth, maybe put a deposit down on a nice place

[alsemanche 85,596]

I mean.... I'd love to keep it but that's a lot of money that I 100% need  so I'd do the same 

[Rob 157]

if they reallyyyy need the money, i'm not even mad about it.

 

(i wonder how much i could theoretically sell gaga's purple monster ball glasses for... foundation in the nose pad and everything 👀)

[BloodyM 1,108]

Well if she needed the money good for her x I don't see anything wrong with her selling the glasses to use the money for her future plans!

I feel like you can have leisure and enjoy a Beyonce concert for less than $1,000.

I don't blame her. That's a lot of money. 

[Railing 1,990]

The criticism is so bizarre to me

Maybe you're (speaking broadly) just jealous that you weren't the one to catch them, but they did and it's their choice whether to keep or sell. It doesn't make them a "traitor", it's a ****ing pair of sunglasses. It also shouldn't be a matter of "this is only okay if they're broke" because atp it was their possession and their call to make!

[Demoncore 475]

They got a cool memory AND 15k out of it--I don't see the problem 

[Fzz 290]

The tiktok caption says that two people caught it, so maybe selling it and sharing the money is the only option. Sharing ownership of a valuable item can lead to problems

I would too for that amount of money, it's just sunglasses.

Now it will go to a (rich) Beyonce fan who really wants them.
