No, It exists, but as a subjective measurement of the world. "Value" as a measurement, doesn't exist outside of the observers viewpoint.

Of course it does. It just varies. Sort of how an elephant on the horizon might look tiny, even if it looks huge to the person standing right next to it. And those two people can, if cooperative, come up with an arbitrary but exact system for directly measuring, or even triangulating it's height.

In the same way, people can always take a show of hands and decide on a universal but arbitrary value for anything. We actually do that a lot.

Or, if you wanna get philosophical, what can you even prove exists outside of your observations? Besides yourself, I mean.
