This is pretty much the business practice of every buisness out there these days. This is like when I buy a ticket that is supposed to grant me entrance into a venue but then also have to pay a "facility fee." Back in the day companies and salespeople used to care about a relationship with their consumers; today it's all about sucking that last possibly dollar they can get no matter what kind of bad taste they leave in the consumers mouth.
Nope, not the same thing. This is like giving you an option to have a ticket into a venue that gives you a seat with a partial view with the option of upgrading for 20$ to a front row seat with an unobstructed view. What you just described is a hidden surcharge, there is nothing hidden about this. I really do wish people would figure out what they are angry about.

I wasn't saying it was like the ESO model. I was using that as example of companies nowadays that try to get every dollar out of you that they can. Also, I was defending the Imperial Edition on the first page. I really do wish people would read.
