Are some items in boutique a ripoff?

Shame on pwi, over the years they have been deliberately putting some items in boutique knowing full well people can get similar items for a fraction of costs in catshops. For example platinum hp charm, you can buy 1 at 6m coins=US$1.5 compared to US$6 in boutique.

    Those catshops are either still selling them from the last sale, or selling them from packs. It's not like pwe controls catshop prices.

    PWI tries not to get into the economy of the game.

    Those Gold/Item prices in PWI are player created. Everything in the Boutique are just means for a player to get what they want... I mean there was a time when charms were cheaper from boutique given what was the gold/charm cost back then.

    We've placed an imaginary value of what gold cost is in coins when coins are actually worth nothing in reality unless you're selling coin which is illegal in eyes of PWE as it is their property.

    PWE didn't nerf anything. We have no developers here. The developers in China nerfed the drops' value because PWCN (the Chinese PWI) has a huge problem with botting. I assume they introduced a free botting system in their game in attempt to help people who don't have bots to compete with those that have bots.

    Unfortunately, any changes that happen to PWI comes from China. Any nerfs come from China regardless of whether they are needed here or not. Likewise, any attempts to balance the game are made with PWCN in mind, not PWI.
