Diablo 3 items already being sold for $250

Finally, after numerous delays, the real-money auction house for Diablo 3 is now available for use in the United States, with the promised arrival in Europe starting this Friday. For those of you that are not aware of what the real-money auction house is, this is a service that will allow you to buy and sell in-game items, that are found within Diablo 3, with real money.

If you pay that... I'm sorry, I really am, but you're an idiot. Either that or extremely rich, and need to have your money taken away from you lol.

I wouldn't mind only selling stuff. :)

It's like goofing on Skyrim but with real stuff lol

Listed =/= sold

Look at the picture in the article. There are people bidding insane prices for this garbage.

It's official: my faith in humanity is gone!

The items are probably being bought from, and sold to shill blizzard accounts, in order to make the practice seem legitimate, so that other people aren't hesitant when they think about buying a $1-$5 item. Don't fall for this garbage. If those people are real, they're complete losers. $250 for something that doesn't even exist in the real world XD
