Buying cosmetic items in the world of PC gaming is a phenomenon that shows how bad things are in the industry today. But this news is more than just another idiot microtransaction or proof of the profits that come from Steam trade.
Gamer paid the record $ 61,052 for Sniper Skirt in Counter-Strike. Skin is called Dragon Lore and advertised as "brand new" (understand: it looks pretty glossy in the game) and has a sticker that has been "signed" by a known e-sport personality.
This is Taylor's "Skadoodle" Latham from the popular Cloud9 team, and the sale itself came as soon as he won the prize for the best player of the prestigious e-sports tournament in Boston.
