I think you’re right that this sort of thing scratches a different market itch, and that’s a big part of why it succeeds. I don’t think we’ll ever see just this sort of haggling or just hard prices, but there’s definitely room for both, and it’s nice to see the game industry playing with soft pricing. It captures more of the demand curve.

I wonder if haggling systems just organically integrate better with people than ‘it’s this price, buy it or go away’ hard lines? Okay, I admitted I was off topic… ;)
