Never, for any sum. I like to find my own items and rarely even use the gold AH for buying.
My first, only and last experience with buying virtual items for real money was a hollow and meaningless feeling. If you want to achieve something in a game, it's better to do it yourself over time. It's all possible!
If you enjoy buying virtual items for real money, then that's all fine. It's your money and your own choice

Cool
Would any of you guys spend over £10 on one item? Personally I'm thinking I'd only spend what I make from it.
Yeah, using what you made, to use or make more seems feasible. I might even try some level 1 toon re-sale some day for poops and schoolgirl squeals. Especially if i can turn a profit like with gold auctions(which is in the realm of plausible).
If you think of some guy making 100k/year, it's not that crazy to save a day of farming with a couple of bucks

I see what you're saying but I personally don't see the difference between me farming gold/items to sell to get a better item. I see it the same way with the RMAH, if I can make £2 by selling something useless and then put that £2 towards a useful item I'm all for it. I think I'd take out the cash if it was £10 though.Never, for any sum. I like to find my own items and rarely even use the gold AH for buying.

For most, the barrier between selling and buying in the RMAH is very large. Alot of players will sell and you have some people buying, then the power-users that buy alot. I'd rather let that cash pile up over time and then cash out, maybe buy yourself something nice
Btw, if I was the head of the D3 team, I'd let the RMAH generate its own well rolled top tier items and sell them for a hefty profit. Letting cash go directly into Blizz pockets. You don't see seller name?, so noone would know

With the random generation of good items on the RMAH, i really think Blizzard might be testing the waters with the new Auction House being introduced into Warcraft, the Black Market Auction House. People on the beta are already reporting that "heroic" level items from the first tier of raiding are appearing randomly on the BMAH.
Of course, you can only spend ingame currency upto something like 900,000 gold, but people are already "concerned" that newbies can get raid level items without doing anything.
If they combine the two auction house ideas together, that would be a lot of cash.
If people are making money now, it doesn't half tempt me to play the game again and get some money back.
Is it only high level 60 items (Legendaries etc) which are selling well, or are people also forking out paying for level 30-40 items?

Well answered my own question there.
Though it says funds can go to your battle.net account, or to your paypal account. There a way to transfer from bnet to your bank account, or would it have to go directly through your paypal account? Seems like you'd just be handing money over to paypal all the time then...
This must be so easy to launder money...

http://skidrowcrack.com/diablo-iii-collectors-edition-full-crack-wait/ scroll down a bit, came out yesterday and a few people are having problems so you may be best off waiting a few days
I wouldn't be surprised if there were people running their own public servers for it soon, get a few 100 on and open the auction house..

Most people are capable of playing the game on their laptops.. Don't you bring yours anywhere? As I said previously, starting all over with just you and your mates, at someone's house adds a whole new dimension to the game and makes it a lot more fun, rather than just sitting at eachone's house and skyping

Here's an example - me+friends lan occasionally most of us have good internet connections capable of hosting 10+ people - 1 of us doesn't have the space to host - another has the space to host but his house is on the cutoff point of being able to get ADSL - his connection speeds are shit ( 2mb down 500k up ) and wouldn't support more than 2-3 people despite being a great place to host otherwise.
Not only that however - most of the world has shit internet. Outside of western europe and metropolitan US cities - the vast majority of the world has terribad or prohibitively expensive internet.
What Aada is actually saying is "i'm fine, fuck everyone else" without considering countries like india/pakistan/african countries where in the richer parts people certainly have pcs and would enjoy playing with friends but the cost of having an internet connection capable of more than browsing text only sites is stupid crazy - if they can even get better than dial up.
Hell take the US as an example outside of major cities it's a pure gamble if you can get a reasonable connection or not that would be more than 1-2mb down and 500k up.
But fuck those guys right?

Er...why can't you do that without LAN? You do realise you can connect more than one machine to a router....right?
Who the fuck cares about LAN these days?

Doesn't mean LAN isn't still valid, or won't be valid for many years to come. It also doesn't matter that the server issues are sorted now or not, because the d3 servers WILL shut down eventually. And then you sit there with what is essentially a single player game that you can't play... And it doesn't matter how popular or unpopular the game is when that happens. If 1 person still wants to play this game then he/she should be able to do so even if Blizzard themselves go up in smoke.
