Less than $30 for a wedding dress?!? I want pictures!!
I'd rather not post pictures, but it's made of gauzy cotton and has a shirred bodice with tiers of flat ruffles in rows down the skirt portion and it's ankle-length. Basically a white sundress.

I don't honestly see a reason to actually buy anything in this game to begin with. The only thing I really want is the fastest mount but not at $40. If prices were lower I would look into some cool bling items like cosmetic sets of clothing/armor and extra silly things. $12 for a set of noble clothing, $30 dollars for a wedding clothing set, $30 for a companion, who are they selling this nonsense to lol?
If they want to go the route of few sales that's fine with me, NW will just be one of those forever free games for me. I will never spend a dime based on principle alone, as in, you are not going to rip me off, thank you though. Like I said I really don't think it is necessary to spend money in this game anyway, and at these prices, laugh out loud.
The Sword Coast Raiding Horse is for $30 and it is rank 3.
To add to what I was saying, let's look at the mounts for instance. They look awesome, I love them. But I'm a poor college student, I can't justify so much on one mount. But if it was less, I could get one for my main and I'd be alright paying for mounts for my alts too. I'd be getting more out of my money, I could justify it, and in the end I'd actually be BUYING more. The company isn't losing anything in making pixel items cheaper; I honestly believe it'd create more profit in the long run.
I love the game, and I really do wish I was able to support it more money-wise.
When the cold of winter comes starless night will cover day,
In the veiling of the sun we will walk in bitter rain.
But in dreams I can hear your name,
And in dreams we will meet again.
I'd personally buy more if the prices were lower, and I think I'd end up spending the same amount (if not more) in the long run. I understand why they have high prices and that they have to run the game, but I just can't justify spending so much on one item.
The thing is, they don't need high prices they could be very profitable with decent prices and selling only vanity items. The prices are high for one reason: pure greed.

I'd probably buy bags if they were cheaper AND account-wide. The same goes for mounts and companions. Dyes are another part of the game that need to be addressed - they should be a 1-time purchase, account wide, and usable as often as you like. So, if I bought a dye pack, I could use it to color my character's entire outfit from levels 1 to 60, and never be hesitant to upgrade or otherwise change out my gear, (for fear of losing the dye I've applied to the previous piece).
To avoid the dye being used as a selling point for a piece of gear on the AH, make it so you can only dye gear that is bound to you.

The prices are ridiculous, especially for what you get. $40 for a mount, $30 for a costume? No way. I bought $20 worth of points to blow on keys because I felt I should buy something, but I'm not spending another dime with the way prices are now.
