Oddly an important question. The worth, or value of an object, strictly speaking, is whatever someone is willing to pay. Speculation, fads, scarcity, and a wide variety of factors can influence the price of something. How much is a Pet Rock worth? As much as someone is willing to pay for it. There was a short fad where Pet Rocks actually sold for about $5 US dollars. That fad was short lived and now, generally speaking they are worthless (they are after all, a rock.) But authentic "Pet Rocks" for that period may be of value to some collectors if their original packaging is intact. But again, the price of a good is what the market is willing to bear.
