Man I feel what everybody is saying on this topic. I have cut my spending down as well. The outfits need more bonus stats besides critical, and some of the outfits are so fugly that I wouldn't dare strut around Uruga with them on. I tired Remi's Rare Finds once, hated it, and now I just wait for the items to become available.
A lot of the permanent items suck to me too. Outside of marriage stat boost and the backpack inventory expansion and mounts, nothing to me and worth the cash in the long run. And the mounts suck too, because you have to buy food with real money and they are nowhere to be found in the actual game. So if you use your mount too much, you may have to keep cash in your account to compensate, so I use my special mount when I have to reach someone dying or getting their ass kicked in a major way, or running from something I have no business trying to fight.
As far as my normal cash spending, I realized that the 20% difference in 30/50% extenders was not that great, so I only buy the 30% and use them when needed. The DEF charm, is okay, but it doesn't really make a big difference on a mage like myself, so I just +9 my gear. Nothing else in the shop really grabs me, except the enhancement stones when I need them. I used to buy the packs, but some of the items really don't help too much and they don't last that long. Every now and then I buy a BoT and a 50% EXP Boost card when I can afford it. The shop items suck overall, so I only buy the helpful items, which come relatively cheap.
