I want to know what you deem as what the price should be set at since you said it should be overpriced.
    The same could be said about everybody harping about something being overpriced. NOBODY is going to reach a consensus on what is overpriced. It's your word against my word, your perspective against my perspective. The only common denominator is - you have a free choice to buy it or not.

    For crying out loud. ALL you guys who keep harping bout overpriced overpriced overpriced, you're are all in the same boat as everyone, realize this. The only issue being

    1. people on the end screaming about something is overpriced or not to be in the cash shop are on 1 end of the spectrum where anything over even a cent is considered overpriced. Their tolerance value is 0

    2. people willing to pay eg. $20 for the item have a tolerance value of 20

    3. people willing to pay $100 for the item have a tolerance value of 100

    At the end of the day, it is all the same. The only difference is where your tolerance level for the price of something is and it lies at various points on this spectrum.

    The question that needs to be answered is not constantly shouting that something is overpriced because being overpriced is a relative concept. The CRUX is where is this absolute value where every potential consumer finally says "it is not feasible to tolerate this pricing" THAT my friend is the absolute OBJECTIVE price that can be approximated to what you have been calling OVERPRICED, because that is value when the market indicates that it derives NO value from paying that said amount.

    SE will then have to adjust it again based on this realization.

    You can cry till the cows come home about X being overpriced and nothing will change because everybody has a different idea of what overpriced is.
