So don't buy it? Or this is you want it, but you can't "justify" the price?
The market dictates the price and I have for one seen 8 today only and I'm leveling a new character, so that is 8 people that have dropped the 4,500 crowns on it.
I don't think its worth 40 bucks, so I won't buy it. I also don't think crown crates are worth it, so i don't buy them.
If you want it, you buy it. Doesn't really matter if your perceived valuation or anyone's is lower than the cost, it is, as they say, what it is.

People like you make me shake my head so damn hard.
Yes I have the money and yes I want it. What I don't want it to be blatantly ripped off. It's an insult to my intelligence as a consumer.
The problem is solved when they lower the price to something reasonable. So the only reason I'm not getting it has nothing to do with not being able to afford it or not want it - and everything to do with principle and the fact that I can do basic math.
Thanks for the useless comment though
/problem solved?

That's simply your opinion though, obviously quite a few people don't feel it is a rip off, or even overpriced since they bought it.
What sets the price? Your opinion on what it should be?
Well I feel that all mounts should be free, so any price is a blatant rip off at that point. So should I make a thread every time they sell a mount and don't give it to me?
Buy it or don't they are not going to do anything about it as long as people are buying it, and people are buying it
Uhm not sure where you got your econ degree, but what people are willing to pay sets the market value.
If you put a glass for .50 then for .70 and then for 1.50 and the for 2.00 and people continue to buy them at 2.00 even if they complain, your market value is 2.00.
If they stop buying at 2.00 and you lower it to 1.75 and they buy it while complaining, market value is 1.75.
Complaining about price while buying it means nothing.
sigh ok, you win. Maybe ZOS will hire you and you can set the sales records of mounts for them.

You've seen 8 people with it and you're saying that's what people are willing to pay. But if you read the 40 threads, and all the facebook comments - it becomes pretty obvious that this is not what most people are willing to pay. They would sell more AND make more if it was priced normally.
Obviously you don't have an economics degree either - but I manage a store, so I'm pretty sure I know atleast a thing or two about buying and selling stuff.

That's right. What people are willing to pay sets the value. That's why I set the price of my chocolate chip cookies at five million dollars a cookie. I know there's somebody out there willing to pay five million dollars for one. After all, it's not about what you bought. It's about how much you paid for it.
Besides, this way I only need to sell one cookie.
