    For reference, WoW was making about $250k per hour in subs in 2010.
    Over 140k people were ready to buy the Celestial Steed on release for 25$/17 GBP, waiting up to seven hours for their turn and giving Blizzard a initial revenue of over 3.5 million dollar on day 1.

    If the gaming industry didn't noticed that there is a market for vanity/premium items and potential buyers, it certainly clicked at that moment.
