I agree.

You know what. If this wasnt blatant "give money" attempt they would literally give the pet for 10 dollars AND make it boa on use.
I dont see ANY reason why this would need to be ONE time use only if its same 10 dollars as other "boa pets".

If they just wanted actually people to have "option" as actual "helping players" manner to buy pet with gold instead of money that option would also include account wide on use. Why NOT?

Option 1: Sell for gold. Talk to npc or whatever(already possible with vanilla CE pets). Make it BOA.
Option 2: Sell for money. Choose option in store. Make it BOA.

But no. Just because you can buy it with gold its just one time only for no other reason than "sell less, they will buy more to sell and use".
Would it make the price higher if it was boa? Maybe for while. Going "10 dollars got you 500g? Too bad, no refund. We are not responsible for player economics" is just..ugh, come on.

Blizzard is just biting the hand that feeds it. Come on.
