B sells code to A. A has spent in game money that he does not value but gained a code that he does. B has spent $25 to get $400k in game money that is worth more to him than $25.
No I didn't misunderstand anything. Player B took advantage of player A's cash and spent $25 instead of $50 to get immediate access to a house and have plenty of excess spending money. Nobody needs a house unless they throw parties. However, a game subscription was purchased. It didn't impact the economy, non premium players or premium players. It does impact those unwilling to spend $25 on a video game for a 3 month sub. Maybe we should ask if we really care about those who won't spend $25 or should we cater to those unwilling to support the game?
