Selling Dick Pics

Published October 29, 2026

Selling Dick Pics, also known as $10 Ball Pics, started with a June 2019 Reddit post that listed joke prices for genital photos next to a photo of a man leaning on a car. The image macro turned into an exploitable template over the next two years, with Instagram editors replacing the original photo with characters like Mr. House from Fallout: New Vegas and Dragon Ball's Goku Drip.

Overview

Selling Dick Pics runs on a tiered price menu that starts at $10 for ball pics and climbs toward $50 for "nut vids (screaming)," with specific tiers shifting between remakes3. Posters match the copypasta with an unlikely seller such as an anime character or a video game villain, and the humor comes from the mismatch between the deadpan list and whoever gets cast as the vendor2.

Later edits lean on fictional characters who would never plausibly sell such material, including Dragon Ball cast members and Fallout: New Vegas's Mr. House52. The caption stays close enough to the 2019 original that the setup reads instantly, which lets each new image carry the gag on a single character change6.

On June 8, 2019, a now-deleted Reddit account posted the image to r/teenagers under the title "hit my DMS"1. The photo shows a Black man leaning on a car beneath the words "SELLING DICK PICS," with a tiered price list starting at $10 for ball pics and ending at $40 for silent nut vids3. Whether this was the first upload anywhere is unclear3.

ME.ME archived the image on June 9, 20194, and iFunny carried a repost in November of that year8. From there the price-list text itself turned into the reusable part of the meme, giving later editors the deadpan menu to attach to any character they wanted.

How It Spread

Instagram picked up the template in 2020. On January 1, user blue0nyx posted a version with a Dragon Ball character and bumped the top tier to $50 for "nut vids (screaming)," the subtitle that gave the format its secondary name5. On August 28, aaron.uh posted an edit featuring Mr. House from Fallout: New Vegas that gathered over 30,000 likes within a year2.

The Mr. House edition traveled back to iFunny on August 31, 2020, where it picked up over 400 smiles across the following year3. Instagram editors kept returning to the format into 2021, with chronischedepressie posting a Goku Drip version on January 13 that collected more than 4,100 likes6, and fatherlesss.figure posting a Team Fortress 2 Spy edit on December 7 that reached over 4,400 likes in a month7.

Across those two years the Selling Dick Pics menu settled into a stable copypasta that could sit over almost any character photo, which is why Dragon Ball, Fallout and TF2 editors all used the same tier structure with minor price tweaks3.

How to Use This Meme

A typical Selling Dick Pics edit keeps the original tiered price list (often $10 for ball pics, $15 for ball jiggle vids, up through $40 or $50 for "nut vids (screaming)") and places it over a photo of a character who would never actually sell any of it2. The common convention is to pick a figure whose dignity or distance from NSFW content makes the pitch absurd, such as an anime hero or a video game NPC67.
