I've seen people sell for real money, but for 200+ dollers? Why would anyone do that!

Shadowdaemon · Jun 25, 2005, 09:30 PM // 21:30

if thats the bid they have to pay it, but they are about stupid for paying that for a game item

DaRhino · Jun 25, 2005, 09:57 PM // 21:57

Back in my Runescape days (shame shame

) one of my friends got on E-Bay and searched for Runescape. There were a lot of accounts being sold then, but one seemed to stick out... An already bidded-on account was going for $1200 and there were still 3 days left in the trade

.... I find this amusingly sad, as people have such pathetic excuses for lives that they will buy non-real items for a GAME with real money...

There is always a price to being the best at something. And even if you do buy the highest lvl stuff, there will always be someone with a better item then you.

DaRhino · Jun 25, 2005, 10:02 PM // 22:02

Couldn't agree more with you.

MCS · Jun 25, 2005, 10:48 PM // 22:48

This isn't as big of a problem for me in GW. I mean sure it's lame but near prefect stuff costs a fraction of the price and works just as well.

In games like Diablo II where items are MUCH more important it was terribly annoying.

Like 2 days into the new ladder season on west there was this wirlwind assassin (NASTY build) who had flawless gear while everyone else was just sitting on 1 or 2 decent items and nothing more.

I ran into her constantly in public duel games and she would take out the entire group.

3 weeks in when I had near perfect items she got owned though.

Still, it was annoying for those 3 weeks.

sino-soviet · Jun 25, 2005, 10:50 PM // 22:50

I have question for all of you. Are you people more against the sellers or the buyers?

jordie · Jun 25, 2005, 10:56 PM // 22:56

Well ill tell u this im selling a dragon sword and seing how much a idiot wants for it.

XENOGEARSHARINGAN · Jun 25, 2005, 11:34 PM // 23:34

lol 200g holy shit who would buy that i mean i think it sad that they cant go to fissure of woe do a couple of runs and see if you would get one. i have to say once i was saving money to buy a stormbow which i saw people werent selling them for like 30k so that when i started farming and came up to 70k then i went to underwrold and boom got a rare stormbow so what i learned is i rather earn it then buy it. now im working on my warior and soon he will have 15k armor too. lol i wonder whoe buys off ebay gam items

GranDeWun · Jun 26, 2005, 01:11 AM // 01:11

It's particularly funny since the REAL difference between a plain white item and the Gold Godly DeathSword of Death is usually pretty minimal - nice, but not critical.

DaRhino · Jun 26, 2005, 01:33 AM // 01:33

In response to Soviet's question:
It's not that I'm against either buyer or seller, I just find the buying (more than the selling at least) of non-realworld items ridiculous.

Principa Discordia · Jun 26, 2005, 01:52 AM // 01:52

If I have said this once, I have said it a thousand times: -

DO NOT LINK TO EBAY AUCTIONS FOR GW ITEMS/GOLD!

camcam6740 · Jun 26, 2005, 02:22 AM // 02:22

Bwsk8 · Jun 26, 2005, 02:32 AM // 02:32

Just be forewarned. Arenanet and more importantly NCSoft has stated this will not be tolerated in any way, and will eventually result in accounts getting perminatly banned for it. not just game accounts but physical addresses, and e-mail accounts too... so even if you go buy the game again you will STILL not be able to get in...

Purchasing stuff through Ebay, EZGaming, IGXE, or any other type of company out there doing this will result in a ban. and its easy to track. Easier then anyone would believe... Just do yourself a favor, stay clear of it... play the game...

jordie · Jun 26, 2005, 01:41 PM // 13:41

Aww there goes my money making scheme.

Shadowdaemon · Jun 26, 2005, 08:14 PM // 20:14

heck i will feel free to admit, i am against the sellers! it tells me it is against the rules to sell stuff and i see someone selling a chaos axe for 200 dollars!

well holy shit! i could quit working and just play games all day if people are gonna pay for stuff like that, so i am EXTREMELY jealous and i hope they get banned

I for one agree with you, that damn game was sooo adictive, watching two charicters battle it out with what looked like a brown and white stick (copper and iron).
