Are people actually buying well geared characters on trade?

I personally spent 180 coins on an 80 on Lordearon recently that only had 1 piece of gear, but 2k+ cheives and the professions I wanted as well as some good mounts. Well worth it to me. I could have had a similarly geared toon with 3k cheives and 4.4k gear score for 1/2 that cost but not the "right way" if you know what I mean. I would prefer spending the coins to be legit and have the toon on MY ACCOUNT rather than have the chance of the account getting recalled.

As long as I don't have to grind these achievements myself and everytime I log in I can just go ahead and joke around wherever I like yes totally worth it .

As for the prices you know people that work a non-mcdonalds job can afford anything in this shop , time spent getting angry over loot rules and garbage unskilled players > money .

Ppl who spend such a high amount of money for Warmane usually do that with plenty of small transaction spread over several months or years.

What if I told you that I know multiple players that used to buy BiS toons dropping 400-500 euros in one single day?

Actually one of those examples bought two BiS toons in the space of 24 hours. Just because your wallet can't stand it don't generalize it.

My wallet can actually spare that money but I would still never ever pay 500 euro for a virtual character on a private server simply because in my opinion its not worth the money.

Ofc there are ppl out there that think different and are willing to pay that much. Its no surprise that a server with over 100k players has also view individuals that are willing to pay such a high amount.
Nevertheless the blatant majority wont pay 400-500 euro and most of the sellers of BiS chars wont be able to sell their char even for the minimum amount of coins.

I see nothing wrong with that , BiS characters are not for everyone anyways .

I feel like putting so much of a high price on characters is the #1 turnoff for buying characters. I'd bite if it was 50 bucks or less maybe, but definitely not 500 euros.

I even got some bis char on trade from the begining that are.. lets say over priced as DUCK because they are donors.. chars.. :D
Sadly i feel like they won't sell ever..
I even wanted to buy a new bis char i got the money etc.. but it's not worth 400-500 Euros..
i even found a good char that i liked alot for cheap.. like 300+ coins still don't see worthiness

And like others said it's Great but still a private server.. that makes a big difference for me at least.
I bet they are overpiced because of Coins shop each item costs 23 coins..
But still cheaper than making a new char.. you just need 2 spend all amount in 1 go.. rather than spending each month or week 23 Euros..

Not to mention , most people won't get 10% of the achievements these characters have due to lack of whatever .

And then the day Molten close comes, and you say good bye to your 500 euros spent on a private server.

And then the day any online game closes comes, and you say good bye to all the money and time you spent on it.
And then the day comes your computer stops working, and you say good bye to your money spent on parts.
And then the day comes you die, and you say good bye to all the money and effort you used for anything.

Keep not doing things you'd enjoy "because it will end" all you want. Most people would rather see using their money for fun as an investment on themselves, since if you go by ridiculous thoughts like "it will end some day" you might as well not even bother living since you'll die anyways.

Nihilism isn't a valid argument against anything. "Everything means nothing", is a cheap cop out.

u know why people spent 500-600 to private server? the only reason is they CAN! so our argument basically is useless.. why dont we just thank them for that? cos this server is alive and we all can play here in peace cos of those rich people that r willing to spend some cash for this server...

Big corporations may not close their online games, but players often move to another game within the first 3-5 years, which ends up being pretty much the same.
