Skins are not about collecting. Its about transferring the image of a player to other players. If community agrees something is cool, more people will buy it simply because its cool.

"Im sure they would make more money with a lower price because there would be a ton more people buying it."

Thats actually not true. Just look around how many people have Pulsefire Ezreal or Spirit Guard. In my friends list, every second person has Spirit Guard Udyr, even nobody ever played Udyr before. Thats no coincidence. Show me one single "standard" skin for 975 RP which managed to get sold that often in such short time.

What do you think how Porsche earns his money? Nobody really need their cars. Nobody really think its worth the money. Its about marketing and fantasies of the customers. They dont pay for real cost-effectiveness, they pay for imagionation and fantasies.
