  "account": "T-shirts adorned with the likeness of Grand Theft Auto 6 were distributed at no cost during an exclusive screening at Tokyo Game Show 2026. The immersive experience, featuring a trailer for the game, employed advanced audio and haptic effects to immerse spectators in the virtual world of the game's protagonists, Jason and Lucia. Due to its popularity, the booth was overwhelmed and closed shortly after 10 minutes. Savvy fans noticed the surge in demand and capitalized on it by reselling the T-shirts on online platforms such as eBay, with prices soaring to hundreds of dollars, ranging from $140 to $200. Other items given away at the booth, like GTA 6-themed stickers and carabiners, are also being resold for significant markups, with prices reaching $30 to $40. This reselling of exclusive merchandise is not uncommon and has become a common practice for scalpers across various franchises.",
