Trade System Forced Prices?
First off, is there anyone out there on Lordaeron that has used the Trade system and bought a character yet? I've been on the server for a few months now and was excited to see if they released the ability to sell characters because I have friends who would play but don't have the time to level. HOWEVER, after the last few days of watching the list, I haven't seen any good prices at all, some over the thousands in coins. Since generally speaking one coin = one euro, this means THOUSANDS of euros for a character on this server.
I thought that this was just a bunch of people over pricing characters thinking they would sell easy, maybe not realizing that a coin is essentially a Euro, but after looking around on the forums someone suggested that Warmane's system forces your sell price up depending on your character, with a Minimum of 30 coins at start.
This is 100% true. for instance,
My 68 Deathknight can be sold for no less than 68 coins.
My 55 Hunter can be sold for no less that 38 coins.
Without me getting a say in it at all I am being forced to ask for 68 Euros, or 78 Dollars for a Death Knight that I have only gotten from 55 to 68.
The 30 coin minimum is just Warmane's way of offering Account Transfers at 30 coins. Im not going to complain about Service Prices, but making me have to sell my characters at ridiculous prices like this makes the whole system absolutely broken and serves only to pump more donations to Warmane's pocket. On top of them making me sell my character at a forced price, they take 15% of the coins from the trade.
I'd really like to hear other people's opinions on this because how the system works now honestly just makes me think it's only there to make people donate ridiculous amounts of euros to Warmane.
Thoughts?
