I respect that but you shouldn’t have had to pay 90 USD. The mount should have been free for everyone since it was part of the 20th anniversary or 25 like all the other mounts on the cash shop.
There is an AH in Dorm and mailboxes all over. I don’t use the AH much aside from selling an occasional item or buying flasks/potions.
Like 99.99% of players I don’t need an AH mount.
The mount is just a flex for AH power users and people with more money than functional brain cells. Plus we get to make fun of everyone who buys a $90 digital item in a video game that has pretty limited usefullness for most players.
I’m proud of you, you finally figured it out. This is a forum where people give their opinions on topics. I think it’s too much and predatory, you think it’s not.
I think, if we don’t call them out the prices will only go higher, you don’t.
I can somewhat agree with that and somewhat not. The convenience this mount provides aka AH on wheels with a mailbox makes this a very eh “Lamborghini” style mount. Do I think $90 is overpriced? Absolutely, I think even Lio would agree with me on that. However, the option to not buy it is always there.
so …you used your brain to discern whether youd use the mount enough to justify the cost.
Perfectly rational.
…and then you had to make personal jabs at those who did the EXACT same thing as YOU did…decided rationally if it made THEIR game easier or not…and shot down any chance of my having a shred of respect for you.
wow…FINALLY this guy gets it. HIS OPINION that 90 bucks is ‘too high’ isnt actually fact…I think we’re getting somewhere
no son, they wont go any higher than the market will bear because BUYERS decide what the price CAP is…not sellers.
When you figure out why and how that is, then you’ll be able to let this one go.
More money than functional brain cells? How does that even work? Successful people buy successful people things? This isn’t a new concept. I also wouldn’t call people who could afford the mount stupid, I’d say if you could drop $90 on a mount like it was nothing you are pretty smart and doing well for yourself.
I just don’t get why everyone cares what other people do with their money. It cannot be anything other than just jealousy, to which I would say, stop playing WoW and invest in something that makes money. However, that would mean people have to get off wow
We were soo close! Ah well. It was a dream anyway.
It’s not a product per se so there its not “market will bear”. The cost of making the mount is minimal. It’s a reskin. 30 minutes in an editor and another 30 min to create the item in the cash shop. Also, it’s a one time cost. Nothing is stopping Blizzard from adding a 250 or 1250 mount. If a few whales buy them then they make a profit.
