WoW’s $90 Mount Sells Out Auction House of WoW Tokens

In a surprising turn of events for the World of Warcraft community, Blizzard has introduced the Trader’s Gilded Brutosaur mount, priced at a staggering $90. The mount features a unique 20th Anniversary themed harness with enchanting gems that represent various expansions of the game. Unlike typical mounts, it allows players to access the in-game auction house and mail while adventuring across Azeroth. Due to its limited-time availability, as it will be removed from the store on January 6, 2025, many players are scrambling to purchase it, leading to a shortage of WoW Tokens in the auction house. The soaring popularity of this mount also reflects a trend where mounts, regardless of their hefty price tag, consistently attract interest and sales within the game.

The Trader’s Gilded Brutosaur mount is immensely popular due to its unique functionality, allowing players to access in-game services while mounted, and its limited availability, creating urgency among players to own it before it’s gone. The nostalgia tied to the 20th Anniversary theme and the added convenience makes it attractive despite its high price.

World of Warcraft, launched in 2004, is one of the most iconic MMOs in gaming history, with a massive player base and frequent expansions. Each expansion often introduces new mounts, which have become a popular aspect of the game. The community continues to engage deeply with mount collecting, making high-value mounts like the Trader’s Gilded Brutosaur a hot commodity.
