Patch 3.3: Haris Pilton's got a brand new bag

It was only a matter of time before Blizzard gave us another pre-expansion gold sink, and here it is, ladies and gentlemen. Haris Pilton, Shattrath socialite, has once again started selling her limited-edition accessories, and this time she's expanded her line with the Portable Hole, a 24-slot BOE bag.
The bag is currently available on the Patch 3.3 PTR, and given the official WoW Twitter account's tweet earlier in the evening about it, it looks to be here to stay once the patch hits.
Of course, the reason question isn't who's going to buy these -- anybody who's already bought a mammoth and a motorcycle is who. The real question is, who's gonna start selling these for 5k on the Auction House and hope people don't catch on?

Patch 3.3 is the last major patch of Wrath of the Lich King. With the new Icecrown Citadel 5-man dungeons and 10/25-man raid arriving soon, patch 3.3 will deal the final blow to the Arthas. WoW.com's Guide to Patch 3.3 will keep you updated with all the latest patch news.

I can't wait to get her hole.

Those disease debuffs can't be Cleansed, just a warning.

And it comes to the surprise of absolutely no one that Pilton's Hole is the most accommodating in all of Azeroth. Gems, armor, weapons, mammoths, you can stuff it all in there as easily as punting a gnome down a hallway.

Honestly I'd rather throw a couple of Saronite Bombs in her hole then cast Inferno on the remains.

That's okay. I've got Blessing of Protection.

I hope for your sake it stacks 6 or 7 times, at the least

She's in Outland technically, but point taken. :)

Well, finally a place to put my http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=40613 in.
(yeah I know pets now have their own storage space, but that kills the joke, doesn't it?)

The Achievement for equipping the Portable Hole should be called:
"A Night in Haris"

The Fourth Hole
Equip Portable Holes in all four bag slots.
10 achievement points.

[Yo dawg, I heard you like holes!]
While having a [Portable Hole] in your bag spots, buy another and place it inside the first.
10pts.

Is the bag name a reference to Paris Hilton's brain?
Suzaku Nov 7th 2009 2:09AM
No, I think it's a referance to her vagina.
Frank Nov 7th 2009 2:28AM
actually, it's a reference to an old D&D spell by the same name, which opened up an inter-dimensional space where you could store your stuff. : P
Angus Nov 7th 2009 7:46AM
Frank: No, it's definitely her vagoo.
The D&D spell is an easy excuse to make the reference without getting in trouble.

Another possible reference is to another popular MMO, Disney's Toontown Online, or cartoons in general, where characters have a portable hole in their pockets for some unknown reason, to pull out and jump through.
Oh, god, if someone puts Ruby Slippers or a hearthstone in there...
