"What the f*** are these prices?": World of Warcraft fans question Blizzard's $7.50 trees, prompting swift discounts – but some say the MMO's new housing decor is "still comically overpriced"

As a Final Fantasy 14 and Elder Scrolls Online player myself, I know the controversy that surrounds real-money purchases for MMOs very well, and World of Warcraft certainly offers no exception (if you know about the $475 mount from way back when, you know). It's hard to justify spending hard-earned cash on cosmetics when you already dish out so much for a subscription and expansions like Midnight, after all.
