How much more clothing items there actually are and not availible to the public yet. They have some really cool things like the Kanye shades and Nike Jordan shoes.

I think that Microsoft seriously is scamming us with the marketplace.

Well yes but they are not forcing you to buy these things. They should have it free tho to be honest. Its also a nice option for suckers.

Any money for a virtual item, to me is too much money.
