There was a time before cash shops when this was true in a lot of games. Even WoW had some really rare and hard to get items that couldn't be bought in any real way. I guess you could pay people to play your account, but no real money existed in the game.
Soros' Law: Every mmorpg has to have cash shop angel wings for level 100 players.
In .hack, the angel wing character got that as one of two people who won a special challenge.
In real MMOs, it's just the whales with a lot of cash lol
