| Description: | As J.R.R. Tolkien pointed out half a century ago, “All that is gold does not glitter.†That statement seems particularly apt when applied to World of Warcraft gold.

In fact, World of Warcraft gold is worth more than many hard currencies, including the Japanese yen, Indian rupee, and Russian ruble. What’s going on here? |
