The reason I say it isn't ban-able is because it's a very slippery slope.

Is the skull worth anything at all? Sure. How much is it worth? Has anyone tried selling one?

If I try to sell you a Batfang Headband. I claim "it's worth 10k but I'll sell it to you for 5k."

You take the bait and buy it. Did I cheat you? Maybe... I definitely gouged you compared to the going rate. Is this ban-able? No. Why not? because you should have done a price check instead of taking my word for it. I would not get banned for doing this.

I'll take it now to the next step.

I try to sell you gatorscale leggings for 2500pp when the going rate is 1500. (Not to mention that several months ago they were only 800.) Can you petition to ban me for this? Highly doubtful.

See what I'm getting at?

Trust me, I do not in any way condone this guys actions! ( Nor do I like current auction prices [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] )
If I saw him in person I would love to give him a drop-kick and follow it up with the flying elbow (love wrestling references in tough guy talk [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]).
I'm just saying.
