Why is the celestial steed on the traders post?

It’s still available now and could get it right this very moment with gold tokens too If you’re stingy

Gonna guess its either

1: A placeholder to show how things look in the preview of the trading post

2: It ain’t gonna be on the shop for much longer

As far as I’m aware, the new trading post will also get items that are on the store. So sometimes you’ll have the option of either using the new currency to get it or paying dollars for it instead.

to give others the options of paying with the new token system or buying items from the store with real money.

You only get 1,000 tokens a month.
Some people would happily pay IRL cash to get it instantly. Especially with other items they may desire from the Trading Post over the store mount.

Personally I think all store products should be on the Trading Post.

I’d have 0 issues if they added 5 store mounts a month, as long as there was a way for me to acquire them in-game, even if time-gated to once a month.

if i were to take a personal guess i would say its because its the least selling mount in the store currently

I think it more likely that some people will see a store mount on the trading post but want another thing as well but won’t be able to get enough currency so they’ll buy the store mount from the game store and that way have the in-game currency available to buy the other item they wanted as well.

Unless blizz only puts store mounts on the trading post that are not currently on the store. Which is quite possible since there’s a bunch of store mounts that have been removed from the store over the years.

As for me, I want to have a chance to buy the old mop phoenix mounts. Or the WoD challenge mode mogs. Or the tov mythic chest and shoulders etc.

Would be really funny if they put the Legion mage tower mogs on it. Forums would have a melt down if that happened :rofl:.

You pay money to use your gold to get $15 back in blizzard credit?

Cuz maybe someone doesn’t want to spend real-world money on it?
