Of course, the RMAH (and the GAH) are now gone completely, so they did, at some point, decide that it wasn't good for the game.

- chii 12y agoi m sure blizzard's main source of revenue is selling of the game, not from commission earned from the RMAH. RMAH is probably players away, and i m sure their measurments/analytics showed this and thus shut it down.
- Cthulhu_ 12y agoExcept they only did it a long time after introducing the RMAH - they were probably well past their peak income when it came to that income. If I were to make a random guess, I'd say that they made twice or thrice as much revenue from the RMAH than they did with actual game sales, and that's probably being conservative. I don't know why they finally decided to pull the plug, given all that money. Probably trying to salvage some goodwill before figures were leaked about how much they earned from it, although I'm sure those figures are out there already, given that Blizzard is a publicly traded company and their earnings are out in the open.
