How much have you spent on the game so far?

I just spent my first $20 to catch the last of the charm sale (bought inv stones, charms, and xp scrolls), and was wondering how much other players have spent thus far.

Ideally I'd like to keep my spending in line with other mmo's at around $15-20 a month, but all the talk from the forums and guildies about how many charms are needed to level up make me wonder about the true cost of enjoying the game at high levels (70 and above).

    Zero

    Already spent around 60+ gold in shop items, but all of it was traded in auction hall with in game gold (yes Ive made over 10 Millions already)

    It advertises free to play, and I play it as such, if I want to pay for a game I will go play a p2p

    More than 100 dollars. Random charms, a dragon mount, a decent flying mount, some reset scrolls, ect. When I add in the wing widgets (which are a bit overpriced I think) then I'll be chalking up another 40 or so bucks.

    Yep, don't want any of the two barely lowered mounts they put up this week, maybe next week they'll lower something I'll want to buy.

    $40, but I am withholding using any gold right now until I see if the charm situation gets any better. Gotta love those inventory extension stones though! I tested an exp scroll, and they work decent, but I can deal with the lower speed leveling...but at least they're cheap!

    They have got to lower charm prices back to or below the sale, and they have got to lower some of these other cash shop prices...$15 wings and $30-50 mounts are' ridiculous, and the price of making a matched outfit with enough of the same dyes to actually dye it is also kinda ridiculous depending on which outfit you try to make.

    Until they hammer more of this pricing out, it's only the bare "essentials" from the cash shop, and whatever I want that's actually on a REAL sale. The rest I'll buy with in-game gold or from in-game shops, thank god we can do that, at least.

    $220 total so far, but I haven't used up all of the gold yet. With that I've gotten many things for myself and a close friend, as well as a few charms for people I know and items I've bought and sold for in-game coin.

    I don't really see spending more for quite a while either since I have what I want/need from both the cash shop and game.

    hopefully they will be real POSITIVE improvements...i played a game called flyff...very fun and memorable but then they started changing and what was suppose to be improvements was just a reason for hundreds of players to quit playing. drats i do miss those pets that pick up items for you :D

    people who have spent $200+ really need to get some help, there are much
    better thing to spend your cash on then game items. To me spending money on game items is pretty much like burning it, theres many more REAL items i would rather have.

    The poster above me, "whew!" (j/k)

    I've spent $50.00 ... mainly for extended space between two characters. With those "oh little shinies" farming nodes, something in me refuses to pass them up whenever traveling or questing.

    Its just everybodies personal sense of worth. Everyone wants diff. things, whether it may be something you can touch and feel, taste, or a virtual experience. To some pple, what you buy in real life might quality you for the loony bin. Everybody is different.

    And then there are the pple who make so much money they can afford to spend thousands on a game... cause they can, but they are a whole diff. species starting from their salary     b:chuckle
