I’d rather spend that money on a wow tattoo. I can’t imagine ever spending $1500 on a replica sword that’s cringe.

Just looked into it and I mean not something I’d be interested in but like it’s created with Zinc-Coppor Alloy, Stainless Steel and Leather like what do you expect? Like it’s not like it’s some cheap plastic miniature

People have spent nearly 2k USD on a wow sub over the past decade, when private servers have existed. LMAO a fool and his money!

I saw that. Blizzard is smoking some serious chi if they think people here have $1500 dollars to blow on a sword.

If I’m paying that much for a sword, it better be a real sword and capable of doing everything a real sword can do. This replica probably couldn’t take falling off the wall without getting damaged.

Some do. Theres a lot of collectors with money to burn. Out of millions of people they just need to sell a hundred or so

At least you got entertainment value out of that not just some junk to hang on a wall. But I do agree on… a fool and his money.

Yeah, all the rich kids play eve online, wows for the kiddies drinking out of sippy cups wondering what those red and green numbers on the stock exchange mean.

Look harder, Zinc Copper Alloy is not expensive and is less expensive than stainless, I guarantee the stainless part is a mere coating. They probably get the zinc copper from China where it is even cheaper… There is also zinc copper alloy made from tin… Lets hope that has no tin and they cleverly left that part out.

I could see something like this reselling for 5k to some nerd who played wotlk classic in highschool and made a couple million being a boss in his 20s/30s.
Video game memorabilia has huge resale potential, the harder it’s made to replicate the better. I view a lot of this stuff as fun temporary investments, even if I never resell they’ll collect memories.

I would laugh so hard if somebody bought this thing and when they got it in small letters on the hilt it said “Made in China”

It looks nice, but the cheaper version linked earlier in the thread looks nicer.

That’s fine. Different strokes and all that. I can’t help but mentally ridicule anyone who would buy it.
I’m flawed like that

swords are actually useful as a weapon although maybe not that one?
