Emote prices need to be more balanced

I personally am a big fan of minecraft, I have been playing for many years, I have played countless worlds I had a lot of fun with the game, and I will occasionally check if anything new for my character in the game, in the character creator, but the prices of new emotes in minecraft are exaggeratedly expensive, I think this new feature is really cool, but charging up to 900 minecoins for a dance is unacceptable, with this amount you can buy realms to play with your friends or buy a game inside of minecraft.
I just ask to lower the price, I would pay 200 minecoins in a very cool dance.
Overpricing in-game purchases can make the game lose a lot of reputation.

    The prices are ludicrous. Very damaging to Microsoft and Mojang in terms of reputation. My nine year old is upset as I won't let him spend around £5 on an emote (yes, just one). At his age he doesn't have a good grasp of the value of money, but the parents of all the kids playing Minecraft do. This is a cash grab, and it should be reviewed. Way too expensive! Have we learned nothing from the reputational damage caused by EA's loot box scandal?!

    Thank you for saying this. I feel I should add that there are a lot of young players in the community who may not have a good concept of money, and can’t always make good decisions for themselves. I know the recent overpricing of microtransactions has definitely rubbed people the wrong way. Quite a few loyal Minecraft fans who normally praise the game have voiced their concerns to the rest of the community. I am not against paying a bit of money for benefits to your game here and there, but I think that Minecraft needs to accommodate for it’s younger audience to a degree.

    I can’t believe they’re selling these emotes for these prices and they’re selling character creator items for good prices

    The prices are too much expensive, and should be lowered to the quarter, why would I pay over 200 minecoins for a dance?

    I overbought... Full of life texture pack? More like full of **** 830 minecoins down the drain, there should be a refund button, as all they did for that texture pack is take irl pics and pixelize them, and cornflowers are such a bright blue theyre basically glowing! They hurt my eyes.
