I have bought stuff, but mostly on impulse - which is probably a problem of mine in itself (mostly fantasia). I only have one store mount, and i bought it on sale when it was like $16 (account wide carbuncle - so my alt has it too!)!

I don't think they necessarily should. The cash shops in that game, or even something like ESO is completely different. By the way ESO regularly sells "limited items" such as mounts at $40+ and their big houses cost like $100, but it's buy to play with an "optional sub"!
Carbuncle mount is a beast. I love small mounts, because I hated in Warcraft how larger mounts would cover up quest givers when you land on them, lol... I'm glad it's account-wide, but I do miss some of my outfits and emotes on my alts. Though I mostly use my alts to store items and to act as additional auction slots. If someone were to ever have a 'pay to win' conversation-it'd be about how paid retainers give players an edge on the market by providing additional auction slots. But you can get around that by massing alts! I have 1 main and 4 alts, so 10 retainers to sell crap!
