Sounds fair, high, but comparable/slightly better than
game+expansion+character transfer to get it on the same account as the
rest of your characters. Which I guess is the point.

It's not something I'd use anyway, as a character just doesn't feel
"mine" if I didn't level it myself (I can't see myself even using the
free one from WoD tbh; I certainly wouldn't pay for it), but overall
that pricing seems about right. It *should* be relatively high; it's a
very much premium service compared with anything they've offered
before (lvl 90 boost doesn't compare with the likes of server
transfers!), and I don't think it'd be a very positive thing to make
them so cheap that there were tons of them going on, but it's in a
range where people who care the most about it will be able to decide
if they think it's worth their money to save some time.
