People charge that kind of plat because... wait for it... People will pay it! OMG
Why is this concept so hard for you to understand? It's not like plat is hard to get anyway...

On a side note, I think the reason so many people are in an uproar about the VS nerf is because its from last expac. There are many other things that should have taken priority over a VS nerf.

They had a good idea with TNT trash loot. People actually wanted to do trash in that zone. The problem was the bullshit annoying reactive CC and the overall buggy nature of the zone. The idea itself (extremely rare but quite good items off trash) was solid though.

I don't know why the current raid trash fabled is so horrible. We'd all be more than happy if it was 15x as rare but actually worth wearing...

No, no, no, no, no....I'm going to forget I even read this.

Goddamnit Kall you didn't even read it! I said the trash fights themselves were annoying and shitty but the idea of ultra rare loot dropping off them was a good one.

Make the fights not annoying, but still give us ultra rare loot that people would actually want to spend DKP on, and suddenly no one complains about clearing trash anymore!

No, it was not fun not doing the zone and instead farming the fuck out of trash with alts because the loot off trash was better than the loot off the nameds and of course you have guilds getting 3 scout rings or priest bangles per run and other guilds going weeks without anything.

Trash is there to serve one purpose. Be a small timesink in which players can show off their gear and skill by putting up good parses. That's it. It shouldn't drop loot, it shouldn't have control effects or DPS reducing abilities, and it shouldn't be excessive or annoying.

QFE! I could not agree more.
