Trader’s Gilded Brutosaur $90.00 Ripoff!

Defending predatory business practices is such a weird hill to die on

You think tokens are going to hit that level Bored? You play the gold making game far more than I do.

I doubt it, but we’ll see.

I did, and I only got to wear the shared pair of shoes one day a week.

Please tell us about the predatory business practices.

Hopefully in a way that doesn’t amount to “Some irresponsible person bought a bunch of stuff they didn’t need and couldn’t afford”.

How is it predatory… It’s a “nice to have” mount, not “Buy this mount and all your problems will DISAPPEAR! You’ll get into any M+ you sign up to, Mythic Raid Leaders will be begging to have YOU in their raid!”…

Like bro, it’s just a nice thing to have, it’s not needed. At all… In fact Hearth is on a 15min cd now so there’s genuinely not a real pressing reason to even buy the thing at all…

(I bought it cuz I’m not a brokie)

You had a shared pair of shoes? Did you live in a mansion?

If you think $90 USD is expensive for a in game purchase, don’t ever try Star Citizen lol. I have about $2,000 USD in ships and believe me, I’m a gnat compared to some ship collectors who have well over $50,000USD in digital goodies.

Do you guys not have disposable cash?!

I saw that mount and was like, wow. I clicked on it so fast. I haven’t bought a mount before, but, this was going to be the first… then, I saw the $90 price tag. lol. No thank you.

I mean 90 dollars isn’t that much we have unemployed guild mates buying it.

It’s not about being broke or not it’s really the principle of it.

Blizzard doesn’t deserve 90 dollars especially with the state of the game currently so they don’t get 90 dollars.

Just about anyone could go door dash a few hours for it though it’s not like an astronomical amount but it is rather disgusting.

Nobody accused folks of being smart with their money.

I’ll say this much, I’m not buying the Brutosaur but I’m all for the $30 mount pack. Might even re-up for another 12 and get those.

I could level with you, there.
There’s a lot of things that I would absolutely love to change & a lot of things that I’m upset with - but yeah, also agreed, for me personally, 90 was agreeable at this moment in time for a “nice-to-have” mount like this…

It isn’t something that is REQUIRED. If you don’t want to buy it, don’t but you have no business telling others how to spend their money. I bought it and have no regrets. Not like they are selling gear. if they were to do that, then IMO that would be crossing the line.

Right nice to have but you already have toys that do the same thing how often are you really using the mailbox.

I can’t imagine it’s really happening more than that CD from a toy.

There’s a toy for Auction House?

You can get a Katy Stampwhistle by doing a couple quests in Dalaran, IIRC…

for $90.00 ??? it’s to HIGH !

I mean, I live in Brazil, and $90 here is a lot. I can’t afford it. For reference, this mount here costs more than a 6-month sub…

Wait people are buying the mount for the mailbox? Lol Nah that’s a little silly if that’s the situation… I do a good amount of rawgold farming & while most of it is vendor trash there’s a few BoE’s that I like to list & make bank on when I get lucky, and this lets me do that easier. I’m genuinely going to park a few farming alts just at the dungeons, now, and I’ll never have to make that trip from those dungeons/raids to city to list stuff. That’s dope. That’s worth the 90 for me, personally…
Might be too much for some people but hey, I also don’t fly first class when I travel… I can’t afford it… And that’s okay. I’m not gonna spam United Airlines about the price of their first class tickets. :joy:
