It's worth what they think it's worth.
what I'm saying is this--Say I'm offering 40k for a level 50 stripped character. How long did it take to level that character to 50?

At least 10 days played time, if not more.

10 * 24 = 240 hours of IN GAME time spent levelling this character.

Most casters and even some melee can make upwards of 1k an hour.

40k / 1k = 40 hours of IN GAME time spent farming the platinum for that character.

Shit the high level farmer could offer twice as much and still be getting a good deal.

See what I'm saying?

This is similar to taking advantage of tribes in Africa to farm gold for greedy multinational corporations.

They *think* they're getting a good deal because 1) they have no other options 2) they don't have complete information
