Link to said leak?

Also, a 70$ monocle says someone is hurting for profits.

Lol? Louis Vuitton must be DYING for profits then?

Edit - Let's keep it to vanity items only.

I don't know who Louis Vuitton is but after gandering at his website I think its safe to assume that its very high end clothing and he must be a world renowned designer. You're comparing his products to a non-existent one that costs more than actual clothing us normies buy from the local department store. While it may seem asinine to pay 450$ for an actual belt, its still a far cry from paying 70$ for a digitized monocle.

I think the analogy you need to put in your head is if Farmville started selling golden sheep or something for 70$. Then you'd have to ask yourself 'Why?'

You main issue here is overpricing of items, regardless of whether it is virtual or real, the concept remains the same.

PFFFT! Monocles and Golden Sheeps are NOTHING!

but Glu Mobile has taken the idea to a new extreme with a Gun Bros. weapon worth nearly $500...

...Glu posted a reduced loss of $3.2 million for the fiscal quarter ending March 31 on decreased revenues of $16.4 million.

Oh, and another comment on the whole economic state of CCP: I'm fairy convinced that the NeX is not about making money, or they would have put perishable goods in there at normal MT prices. Instead, it's a tool for them to reduce liability by removing PLEX (or, more specifically, the deferred service they represent) from the economy and thus remove service debt from their books.
