The bid for the lifetime account on Ebay is already over $2500. Why would anyone pay that much? You don't even get to try it first. What if you don't like it?
 

Because the $$$ goes to CHARITY !!!!!! Man you need to learn how to read. !!!!!

They are paying that much for it only because the money is going to charity.

 Because the money is going to a good cause.    Obviously money isnt a issue to them. 

Money goes to charity and they have some extra they can give.

It's about the charity, as 999 others have said. Although you will see people spending this on F2P games (obviously a very few that might not even reach a two-digit number).

Obviously this is out of the majority of us, mere mortals, budget range =)

LOL you are too funny. You make a post about why would ppl pay 2500.00 for a game not knowing it was going to charity?? Then you get 5 ppl who all say the same thing ? I give charity a few times a year myself it is called Karma. But yes i see that you got my point =)).

I knew it went to charity. I didn't realize there were any rich people following this game. The only thing I learned from your post it that you are a total jerk. And insulting people on the internet doesn't give you good karma.

Link or it didn't happen.

If you knew it was going to charity, then why make this post?  Kinda lame....

Because only rich people would have 2500 dollars. Define rich? A middle-class person who happens to also enjoy video games would probably have this much to give. Anything you give to charity you can write off on your taxes, meaning you pay less money to the government.

Maybe the money is from one of the devs themselves? Maybe the money is from a group of people who give to charity and they plan on giving the account away to somebody, double win charity action. Maybe one of the devs themselves is bidding on it, sure they don't need the account, but they can always give it to a friend or family member and they give to charity.

I'm in college so I don't make a lot, but I'm very careful with my money. I have at least two grand I could give to charity because in the long run when tax season comes I'd end up keeping more than that, probably. Would -I- personally buy a lifetime account to a game for charity? Depends on how interested I am in the charity and/or the game.

Its up to $3300 now

Well, it wasn't me at least, I am well to do and it would make me spending a month eating only rice or pasta.

But some people do have a lot of money, and that one person could afford that is not that suprising.

I think itr was a great thing to do, making something like this. But I could probably pay $250 for a lifetime membership to a game I like, thats about it even if I was a total fan of the game and got some great stuff with it.

People are paying the money cause they want the limited edition set, and not to give to charity.  If anyone is going to give $3300 to a charity they would choose the organization themselves, then donate.

You should probably get out of the house more.  Ever hear of a 'charity auction'?  You suppose all the people that go to those are retarded?  Try this link www.google.com enter 'charity auction' and see what you get.  I suggest in the future before calling someone a retard, you actually know what you're talking about.

3300+ now.  Why do people seem bitter and angry at the people bidding?  Jesus come on it's a charity auction.  Don't be idiots.  It is really cool of the devs.
