Wow what a wasteful way of levelling. Could have gotten 2 skills to 99 with that money. :roll: Anyways, many congratulations!!! :P As for the huge cost... I did 99 crafting by buying untanned green hides. Total losses were about 20m only. Buying tanned leather, from my point of view, isn't really that impressive, as half the job (tanning) is done by someone else already. Sure, you can do it significantly faster, but much of the fun of training the skill will be lost. (not like crafting is any fun, but still) I would give a 99 crafting achievement 10/10, but in this case of buying your way to the top, 8/10.
