Holy shit! Still not something I'm likely to be able to pick up unless it drops and I win the roll, but neat!

In contrast to the overjoyed expressions of the rest, I am fuming angrily, so much that smoke might actually be emanating from me at the moment.

I've been preaching for Blizzard to bring back Tier 3 ever since it was removed and I didn't care much how aslong as it wasn't bought.

If it took effort, if Naxxramas40 was brought back, etc, etc, I'd all go through it to gain T3.

But then they did what I never expected and never wished for and did this and basically to me, it is a spit in the face.

Maybe it's selfish, but yeah, I am filled with anger right now, so angry it might seem that the Sha of Anger has seized my mind.

I'm hoping that the TCG mounts show up in here as well.

But if I see mimron's head?.. I'd go 500k on that.

Anyone notice you can buy tier 3 stuff?! Maybe I can get Cryptstalker for my hunter and maybe a corrupted ashbringer on my DK!

I assume you are fuming over the redemption piece. I wouldn't get too worked up, the chances of seeing the full set from here is nil, unless you camp it for 3 years.

most likely enough people will complain about the tier 3 stuff and blizzard will put it somewhere more accessible. i highly doubt blizzard would require such a high price for replica armor when its not necessary.

wish i could see the image but it doesnt load for me

Isn't T7 a prettied-up version of T3? Just sayin' that if you don't want the high price of the originals, there are options. <.<;

Note that the Black Market looks like a special version of the AH? So that 20k would soar up into the hundreds of thousands very quickly, I'd imagine.

I'd pay to have an Ashes of Alar mount!!! Although by the next expansion, soloing The Eye should be a walk in the park ... I'll have to wait and see how long my patience and perseverance endures before I cave-in.

I think this is an awesome concept! I wonder what other goodies could be obtained through the Black Market?

"Prettied up" is a subjective opinion. Not all T7 recolors look nearly as good as their T3 counterparts to some people. The warlock T3 springs to mind for me, personally; I love the T3 far more than its recolors.

Don't freak out.

People will have to compete with everyone else on the realm (including opposite faction) for the pieces.

The chances someone will get a full set is astronomical and would cost an EXTREMELY large amount of money.

I for one, being on one of the most populated realms, will probably ignore the Black Market.

Ditto. I'm not much of a gold farmer, but I do think this is a great gold sink for those people who are into that sort of thing. :P
