Let's not ignore the reasons that made it a high-value cheeto. Not everyone happens to stumble upon a Pokémon-shaped Cheeto. Most probably, the owner did not predict its value.


A netizen pointed out the bidding amount.

"$2K is not “thOUsAnDs of dOllARs”

However, many felt that the OP wasn't technically wrong as he didn't mention how many thousands they were talking about, but used it in a pluralistic sense.


It turns out that many have recognized the value of the treasure.

"NGL That is so worth it !!"

Another user questioned the durability of the product. They better be using anti-mold chemicals, hopefully!

"what happens when it gets moldy"

The user unlocked a Pokémon fan's worst nightmare. Imagine spending thousands on the rare Cheeto just to lose it to a stranger's cravings.


Some are considering going on a quest to look for the treasure. This post might give you a new purpose.

"That’s insane how can I find one lmao"

Another user shared their predictions on the bids. Maybe we need more updates on the winning bid.

I say it goes for 4200!


An X-user got some expedition ideas.

"I'm going to start hunting anything shaped as a zard lol"

Financially speaking, month ends can give you a hard time. A user highlighted the struggles using Quagmire's image.

It turns out that the craze didn't end with cards or Pokémon Go! Fans are still ready to invest notably in their favorite characters.


Another user added.

"I got like 20 hot Cheeto lookin Pokémon sitting around somewhere in my house. Who’s tryna bid em?"

Like any other fandom, Pokémon fans don't let go of the opportunity to catch 'em all, even if it involves paying thousands of dollars for a Cheeto. Nonetheless, the rest can share a good laugh at innovative auction ideas.
