Dude, nothing in the real world has intrinsic value, either. It's worth what someone will pay for it. No more, no less. It's worth noting that not everything is paid for in cash; political favors are another popular currency.

Yes, you'll see stuff up for auction that won't pay for its own materials. Guess what? The creator already extracted value from it; he got his skillup attempt.
