If you think about it for a min, you could go to gold selling site and spend 400 USD to get like 3bil and buy a new one :? with 300 USD left over :roll:

I personally dont think 700 Real dollars for a virtual item is worth it, u can buy a new laptop. But if you have the money why not.

I never gave single $ for this game or any other, never ever bought CD or DVD with game. I just borow cracked games from friends. Why? Because I think is stupid to give 50-150$ for game, its just stupid. Hahaha I played maaaaaaaaaany offline games and none of them was original. I just dont want to pay for game.
And that guy give 700$ for one weaponh, he is just sick, or veeery rich and spoiled kid.

I've brought more than 7 ps2 games before. Each cost me $100. I thought it was justified.

Whether its a pixel or not, who cares? I spend my leisure money on stuff that brings me happiness. For me now its cds + new clothes. For some people its alcohol, drugs, car parts or even games. Does it matter what you get? No, its the happiness and joy those items bring thats important.

So as far as money is concerned its no big deal. Though this breaks the tos of joymax thus making it illegal and frankly if we had a competent company running the game, both of them should be banned.

Do you think having that will bring him true happiness? A Pixelated image? Sure, he'll be happy for the first few weeks... then what? He'll realise he's wasted his money. People on this forum are simply saying he completely wasted his money on something totally worthless. The only reason he bought that bow was to feed his addiction.

And $700 is just the tip of the ice berg, I bet he spends all sorts of money on premium + silk items. His money could be better spent on something that he can actually touch. Hell, I've seen decent cars sell for less than $700. For that money you could get a PS3 and GTAIV, a much better bargain than an online image!

The most I've spent on an online game was $50 and I felt REALLY bad after that.

Some people spend 200 on alcohol for a night of being drunk. The next morning they awaken sober yet they had fun. If they had fun the act is justified.

Though another person would rather spend his $200 on charity. If it brings him joy, why not?

Now some guy wants to spend his money on a game. Sure he cant touch them item, but can you touch alcohol when its gone? Can you touch the money when you give it to charity? So why does having to touch an item count at all?

Also who are you to say this bow wont bring him joy? Joy and happiness is a matter of perspective. Some people find pleasure in things other people dont. I am a big fan of walking, i do it a lot just for leisure and relaxation. Yet i have a few friends who despise walking. Everything is a matter of perspective.

Let him justify his spending, don't do it for him.

If he can miss that amount of money, why not ? Some people are just to rich :banghead:


+1 If I could miss that kinda money I would probably be buying things like that too lol..And I'd be probably botting and what else but w/ ever.

Anyway, I sure want to sell that kinda stuff for $$$$ : ) I could use it.

Whoever said they would buy it taht was a pretty stupid statement. i think i read somewhere in the ToS that it is elligal to trade in game items for RL cash. So if you accepted the trades joymax can Sue your ass.

I hope joymax ban the accounts and remove the weapon for ToS violation. Or is that just wishful thinking ?

The richer a person is, the cheaper he'll be. Rich people don't "throw" money away, they invest it smartly. Show me how buying a set of bytes on a remote server is an investment?

I am willing to sell 1MB of my computer's space. Taking offers, starting from 100 USD. :roll:
