Oct 26
For those of you living under a rock, facebook has virtual gifts that they sell. The gift for October 25th, a unicorn is set to a limit of 10,000,000 before it sells out. So, based on facebook’s october user numbers of 47,000,000 users, you have about a one in five chance of getting this stupid unicorn sent to you before stock runs out.
Assuming Facebook sells out of these gifts, and all purchasers buy them using the bulk discount ($5 for 10 gifts), facebook will take in a cool $5,000,000 (that’s $5 million for those bad with zeroes).
Does this kind of thing justify the rumored 500 million in investment that facebook just got on top of Microsoft’s $240 million facebook investment?
