NBG is a con that ropes in suckers every time.

Disagree in certain contexts such as an item that's very limited to only one or a select number of classes and/or is very good for that class. Maybe they'll sell it later on in their character's life as expansions come out and better gear becomes available, but who cares. If they need such an item now, then I'm fine with doing NBG.
