    Before this shit existed (like back when the hottest shit was Quake), I thought it might be cool to get a professionally made skin everyone in the game could see for like $0.25-$0.50. A dollar, at most.

    The first iteration of a system that could have potentially made that a reality, the things you’d actually wanna buy were $25-50. Like who the fuck workshopped these ridiculous prices?

      Adjusted for inflation, the price is probably the same 😅

      But seriously they just charge whatever people will pay. It’s not like it’s free market, if people can’t make their own custom skins.
