Default OT Hammer Pricing

Maybe the answer is as apparent as "Puppet Strings are rare".

But Puppet strings have 10 charges. At a recharge cost of 840 platinum. So assuming only needing a single charge, it is costing the person selling OT Hammers 84 platinum.

Yet they charge 4.5k?

Those of you who sell it, I am curious how/why you justify asking 4.5k, a profit of about 53X the base cost for you. Even with 2 charges per person you are still getting a profit of 25x the base cost.

I'm guessing one of the following things:

1. It may be tough to find a recharge, IE it isn't always on hand, since they are lore and you can't box
2. Someone who has Puppet Strings clearly is wealthy, and due to that they value their time higher than some noob with only 2k. So your 'time' to Hammer there and loan it out is worth 4.5k?
3. Rich need to get richer, because science?

Just curious. Cause getting 45k off 10 OT Hammers (a full puppet string) seems pretty ridiculous to me considering the time invested by the player.
