To me it is worth every single penny. It's so  beautifully designed and is involved into such a dramatic part of Warcraft lore that I think I am going to have a true-sized replica of it as soon as possible.

I think Blizzard has done a good job by allowing players to purchase things like this. At the moment I only own a Wrath of the Lich King collector's Edition but I must say i don't regret for a second I made this purchase - it is this first class quality and attention to details that grabbed me when I unpacked the box. And seems like Blizzard is being very careful with stuff they create, be it a video game or accessories and I am fond of this professional approach.

So yes, despite being an employee and having average salary, which is not much in my country, owning a Legendary Sword is still worth the money it costs for me.
