Sigil is for Sale

Sigil has been bought by virtual real estate mogul Anshe Chung, whose company Dreamland is selling the sim for 500,000 linden. You can also rent it for 112,000 linden/month. For those who don’t use Second Life, the cost to buy the land translates to roughly $1,880 US currency. Anshe was the first Second Life millionaire, and has been featured on the covers of Business Week and Fortune magazines.

It will be interesting to follow the future of Sigil - during its existence it changed hands due to the high costs of running the sim, and eventually folded for that reason. I’ve seen other historical sims follow the same path. I’ll be disappointed if its replaced with a virtual casino or something along the same vein. While it remains for sale, Dreamland has changed to the “Sigil Mall & Sex Garden.” Perhaps Anshe herself will develop something if she’s unable to sell it.
