15% fee is outrageous, need 3rd party websites suggestions ! der=0

Well since the 15% fee hit the rmah, selling end game items for 20$ and up is out of the question. No company in the world charge for 15% fee for any money transaction services. I wasn't very d2 active player, nor i was interested in selling/buying gear, so if some d2 veteran can point out a few good webistes where we can advertise and arrange for sale with another users feel free to post here.

Also, is it against the diablo.incgamers.com rules to post here any end game gear that we want to sell on player to player basis without using the rmah for the obvious reasons?

Edit: well since i first read about the 15% transaction fee, i knew smth was wrong here, blizzard said they will keep the fees low, and they will be fixed (non percent based). It seems it was just some bug in the beta patch 16, Blizzard, you rox once again

You seriously think you'll find an item worth more than 20$?
That sounds like a top-tier rare item prize.

I never found anything beyond 3$ in D2

I suspect early on there will be items worth hundreds.

Doom doom doom! Theres governments that charge the same thing on all goods. Its not like any of us is going to declare it for income tax...

Not early on but possibly later on when something is proven to be super rare. I don't think anyone is willing to put several hundreds into a virtual item before they are absolutely sure of what they are buying.

Someone bought a rare sword for $20k before the game was even launched (not d3). This sparked huge controversy. People will pay big.

As a tax consultant I fully expect everyone to report it on their return as Virtual Sale Income (VSI).



For the majority of items wouldn't the 15% actually save us money? Only the few high end pieces will be really costing you more.

In the beginning, everything's gonna worth hundreds, 2 months later, few dollars.

[ShadoutMapes]

Yeah. 15% means items can go a lot further down in price than they could before.
Sadly it also gives Blizzard even more incentive to balance droprates in the game to maximize their own income :/

[TwiiK]

Seems retarded.

Basically means you'll throw all your crap on the RMAH, but when you find something actually good you'll turn to the black market. I thought the RMAH was made to get rid of the black market, not to fund Blizzard.

Give us a monthly fee for playing instead then if income is the issue.
