I think it's good, some items need to be as expensive as 70k just to give players something to work towards and save for IMO.

I realize all the 2p mounts are ridiculously expensive why idk. You say it gives players something to work towards,but how are we supposed to work towards 70k when the crypt will most likely be closed by sunday night. Only people with pre-existing bank bought the spider or who where able to go dump money into Itunes.
Again we all know 2p mounts are expensive in general but I still think 70k is to much for a "rare" item that will only be available for like 2 days if that. I don't think limited availability was taken into consideration when the price was set. I think 50k would have been acceptable. 70k works out to roughly $25 (US) in gralat packs thats if you are completely broke. Thats to much to spend on a 2p mount rare or not specially if you all ready have a 2p mount. Not saying I wouldn't want to own one but think of all the stuff you could buy with that 70k verse one fairly useless mode of transportation thats nice to look at.
Overall I was disappointed with Graaloween in general. After everyone and there brother where hyping it starting back in like June and suggesting ideas and talking about how great Graaloween is.
I don't like how things where released for it. Rufus asked for ideas back at the end of September then we didn't get anything till the last 2 weeks of the month and even tho it seemed like there was plenty of time it seemed that the admins struggled to get stuff done. I'm not an admin so I have no idea what was going on and I'm not trying to bash on them like others have.
I know its better for the admins to keep players in the dark about releases to try and keep players from crowding areas but I don't see why they couldn't have stated that the crypt would be open. I know fairly early in the day Rufus's status showed when T o T would begin and stated CC would be Opened at 3 est when it didn't actually open till 5 hours later. My point is that it opened waayyy to late in the day on the actual holiday when most Euro and Sea players where in bed so they had to miss out unless they stayed up. And also when a lot of us players where out T o Ting irl. Bad timing on admin's part some ppl where saying it was Rufus's fault Idk again I'm not an admin.
When it did open I wasn't to impressed with the limited spider themed items in CC all I ended up buying where the bombs. I liked the furniture but would have loved to have been able to buy some of the stuff that is on buildings or on the world map here and there.
As for T o T. I like the idea and it was kind of fun thing to do for a few days but we didnt have a lot of time and most of the hats sucked, I was hearing quite a few players had candy left over from last year, and it was difficult to gather candy when there was so many ppl running around and limited amounts of ghosts that took to long to de-spawn. Having a job and an actual life limits my play time so I can't be a no lifer thats on collecting candy or doing whatever all day. I feel like I'm kinda getting screwed out of stuff when I try to turn in my candy only to get "tricked" or get a lousy hand full of gralats.
Then theres those other no lifers that have all day who have 500+ that can just keep handing over candy all day till they get 1 of each item. IMO if they do this again next year and they only start doing it 3-4 days before Halloween you should put a cap on how many candies players can have at a time (like 100-200) at least that way it would allow players to load up and stop having to collect until its time for T o T so it would be easier for more players to get candy. but yah its great you have 1436 candies and I only got 35 so I end up with 400 gralats, a pogo,and cursed 4x while you have 1 of each item.
Over all I expected more because of all the hype. We did get a good variety of items even if they weren't what we all had hoped or expected. I had held back on spending because I was told how great Graaloween was going to be and It just wasn't that great.
