cant tell you how many people brag in-game about scamming blizz with 'hacked' accounts. its always 'i gave my bro from a different state my login info and we scammed blizz'
 
Blizzard can not set the gold price the can only set the real money price of the token; and it is not going to be possible to predict what the idiot portion of the player base will do.

Add the fact that the price will go up and down just like prices now and there is no way to say 1 token is x gold.

What is in question, in my opinion, is what direction the gold value of tokens will go when gold is in high demand? will desperate idiots sell the tokens for less than market, or will sharks push the price up?

Yes, they can and will set the gold price. Read how it works before you post.

@ best they can set a minimum price and a maximum price -> otherwise no need for an auction house or tokens for that matter

If Blizzard sets the defacto price they would be dictating the real world value of gold and they will not do that; and again there would be no need for an auction house if the set a price.

But, I am obviously an idiot and yield to your far superior bs with no backing or link to prove your bs

The "Market Price" appears to be calculated by region. This is likely to mean that tokens are region locked, thereby allowing Blizzard to try to deal with currency exchange issues.
Sellers cannot set a price for their token
There is no bidding, just an exchange rate calculated per region by Blizzard

from Blizzard Introduces the WoW Token: Exchange Gold and Game Time, Expert Elvine Weighs In - Wowhead News

Q: Why can’t players set their own prices for the WoW Token?
A: The WoW Token feature is designed to facilitate the exchange of gold and game time between players in as secure, convenient, and fair a way as possible, and without making players feel like they’re playing a game with their hard-earned money. Having a set current market price and a straightforward exchange system is the best way to achieve that—you don’t need to worry about whether your Token will sell or not due to being undercut or the market shifting, and everyone receives exactly the amount of gold they were quoted.

it can be a bad thing but it could be a good thing. i mean the prices can drops so dramticaly in the upcoming years that ppl will resort back to build sellers.

lets say 15.00 a month token is worth 4k gold. that could and possably will drop over they years once more and more are on the market making it to the point to were it would be cheaper to just buy the gold on a website. there goal is to have a fixed price just under gold selling prices so they will make little to no profit at all and eliminate them.

Even if it would be (slightly) more expensive then buying from gold sellers I'm sure most people will go with the tokens, just because it's a legit way and they can be sure that blizz won't take their bought gold away and there won't be any privacy issues.
 
Blizz can go simple way, just ban all gold buyers for 72h for a week or two. That will force alot ppl go for the tokens gold imo.
