Yeah so only those assholes that are rich enough, without a care for real life cash of such small denomination can take advantage of this glorious unbanable plat buying with middle man while the other plat buying scum have to run the risk of being banned! (as it ofcourse in both instances should be)
Any kind of bartering real life stuff for in game advantage is completely stupid to me and defeating the attraction of the level playing field that these games now pretend to provide...
Simply put, why the fuck are these games linked in any way in the first place? oh yes, that's right.. to make soe more money! duh if you thought otherwise.
SOE wanted a cut of that sweet plat selling market but had to think of a way of doing it without seeming like complete bastards.
Fair play to the guy that came up with the whole lucrative scheme as what SOE have just provided is the safest and pretty much most seemingly legitimate way to boost your oh so precious character with various overpowered items and indeed direct boosts of cold hard pixelated plat with REAL CASH.
And as any smart money maker would do, is charging a very high premium for such a safe and secure system.
