Yes, you read that correctly.
Swifties are now facing this peculiar question after an attendee of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour decided to sell her used contact lenses for a whopping $1,400 (€1,300). As reported by Mirror, the sale is seen as “a joke at the expense of dedicated Swifties who will fork out cash on anything the star has been near.”
The viral post on X features a picture of the pricey lenses along with a note inviting followers to pm the account owner for sale details. The audacity of this offer has taken the internet by storm, with fans either laughing it off or wishing they had thought of the idea first.

Since the launch of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour in 2023, fans have tried selling expired tickets, “authentic concert air,” and other quirky memorabilia. Instead of balking at the $1,400 price tag, many fans have shown their support for the sale. One Swiftie wrote on X, “I should have done this with mine instead of dump them,” while another lamented, “wait i should’ve saved mine i just chucked em…”
The lengths some fans will go to connect with their favorite artist never cease to amaze. Would you shell out for these concert-worn contacts, or is this fandom taking it a step too far?
