While moving around in Nexus I often find items overpriced to an ammount that is almost upsetting to look at!

That is disgusting Carbine and you know it, judging by your own current conversion rate per cred on my own server 5 plat
 
20$=5 Plat
200$=50 Plat
2000$=500 plat
 
This means this bag is worth 2000$ how is that not insane in anyway?

			Probably for those tycoons who earn lots of plat selling stuff. Agree they should cut prices.

			Sure, it's a lot. But the economy was so broken in the beginning, and arena carries so prevalent and de facto endorsed by Carbine (all structural PvP changes have been to the benefit of sold carries; the one change that hurt them was reverted in short order), that the most exploitative and dishonest players already have thousands of platinum. It's just part of the cheating economy, instead of the general economy most of us work in.

			It's not even that, I'm mad because it's virtually useless! It's a bag for christ sakes I could understand logically if it was some type if BiS wep that was just under Raid gear it would make sense than I'd be like oh Pay 2 Win nothing new here. BUT A BAG?!

A bag, that you can't even use as costume, gets you this upset to the point of disgust?
 
Do you remember how expensive that first epic mount was? By the time BC arrive, you can afford to buy them for all your alts.

			Vendor prices are set by ingame earning rates, not on the real world equivalency via CREDD, because the CREDD market fluctuates pretty wildly. You're arguing a red herring by using a massively deflated item (CREDD).

Man people find the WIERDEST shit to complain about. That 500 plat bag is obviously a satirical input into the game, just look at the "hot" deals part. It's also one of those things where if you had INSANE amounts of money you could buy it and be like hey, look, I have it. It's not something that should concern you,
and it's ridiculous that it does.
 
If it was actually affecting the current in game economy I'd be upset, but it isn't. Stop whining about pointless shit when there are actual issues with the game
that need fixing.

No it's costing the equivalent of 2000$ that does.
----
			
It's not pointless this is just the BIGGEST I've seen.
Again I've seen things like this for 5 Plat,10 Plat,35 Plat
 
The items are useless just like this bag but in the general amount enough for the average user to accidentally purchase them. Nobody is buying a bag for 500 plat it's not happening at all. People with that amount of cash could accidentally buy this item though because it's there, one misclick you've spent 2 grand on a stupid bag.
 
There are multiple instances for the general public who actually have under 100 Plat that items like this exist. Imagine accidentally spending 5 plat on some stupid flair because it's placed in a rep vendor. This makes no sense I see no point for it and if this is for future reference why would they plan so far ahead that people are spending 500 plat on one bag isn't that like 10 EXPANSIONS away.

They are out 500p, not $2000 cash. Show me where I can exchange in game plat for cash. I would like to farm plat to pay for my student loans. :lol:
 
You sound like someone who's pissed off a $40k TV exist.

You mean you buy CREDD for plat?
I make 3 plat a day, and never waste my cash on that.

Maybe not 2000$ but people do sell/buy/trade Plat all the time in every MMO there is a conversion rate for everything. A gold farming company will happily pay for your services in any game it doesn't matter which game you play you can make money from simply being a gold farmer it might not be a HUGE profit and it might even be boring as *cupcake*but when WoW started people I know were making almost 100$-300$ a week from simply farming.
This why the CREDD system was put in place in the first place so yes it does have a conversion rate.

OP, Vic and a few others have pointed this out... but that bag is a GAG item. It is for all intents and purposes useless. Its a joke item, and it comes with a warning that it is a joke item. You open the bag to find another bag, and then do it again to find another, and on and on and on until you end up with the original bag again. 
 
 
 
IT'S NOT A SERIOUS OR USEFUL ITEM.... IT IS A HUMOROUS JOKE ITEM
