I don't disagree that some of the responsibility lies with the players. I feel if there was more competition in this game genre that Blizzard would be forced to compete with lower cosmetic prices. For example, there's probably a market for a $500 burger joint. Maybe they make more money having 5 customers a day than a $10 burger joint. But you can't have a town filled with only $500 burgers restaurants, it wouldn't be sustainable. I guess in this case we will have to look into PoE 2 (if that's what it's called).
