Is it absolutely necessary for bliz to be taking 15% commission off items sold in the gold AH? C'mon!! Why???? You're taking commission on fictitious currency? I understand taking from the Real money AH to cover dev costs etc.. but why oh why………… *sad face cos I only got 8500 from a ring I wanted 10k for.. oh well
So wait. If I listed somthing on the RMAH (forgive my ignorance, never used either AH) at the absolute lowest amount (I think it's $1.25), I get 25 cents if it sells?
More gold sinks would be nice as long as they benefit the player. E.g. extra 100k and a gem at the blacksmith guarantees a strength/vita roll on this crafted item.

As any intelligent person would know, they want to constantly take gold out of the system so gold values don't drop horribly. Common sense is hard.

It's to control inflation. Without the cut gold would end up being as pointless in Diablo 2 and we'd end up trading items for items or other fictional currencies (D2jsp fg etc).

Don't know why you care that you missed out on 1.5k gold, that can be a pile of gold that dropped off trash in act1 inferno.... -.-
It was a small example, obviouly the affect is felt on the larger sales!
Tx for the comments, makes sense I guess.. just gotta factor that 15% into the selling price now.
PayPal will take 15% on top of that though.
Commodities are 15% (rather than a flat fee).
