WoW player loses $10,000 on rogue elf - The Inquirer

WoW player loses $10,000 on rogue elf - The Inquirer: "A BLOKE WHO spent $10,000 buying a used World of Warcraft character seems to have lost the lot. The bloke, 'Shaks' bought the Level 70 Night Elf Rogue character, one careful owner, no rust, complete with the Twin Blades of Azzinoth and four out of five pieces of the Tier 6 armour set."

Apparently, cash is not legal tender in this case.
