World of Warcraft is the world's most popular MOBA, home to some of the most dedicated players the gaming world has ever seen. Back in 2007, one of these players took dedication to the game to a staggering new height in a transaction that would see Blizzard clamp down on their character.

Zeuzo was a Level 70 Night Elf Rogue in WoW who managed to sell his character to a player called Shaks for roughly €7,000 (about $9,500 at the time).

The justification for this life-changing amount of money was that this Rogue came with the legendary Twin Blades of Azzinoth, which could only be looted off Illidan Stormrage's corpse in the Black Temple. Zeuzo then continued playing the game for years after the sale with a different Rogue build.

As for Shaks, the character quickly disappeared from the game with most believing their account had been banned. Blizzard have always been firm on their policy of selling accounts being a big no-no, so it's safe to say this might not have been the smartest of investments from this not-so-slick buyer.
