This is a very cool example of generated value: http://significantobjects.com/ . What gives things value? Well, many times it is out personal attachment to things. This project just goes to show how much of the value of something can be applied beyond the value of the physical object itself. Most of the significant objects are bought for about $1-$5 and sell on ebay for $20-50 but sometimes get into the hundreds. Note that none of the obejct stories are real. Yes a Sanka Ashtray can be worth 12$...
