There are two legal ways to buy things in Path of Exile. The first is to buy points for which you buy MTXs and stash tabs.

There are three offers where you can buy points:
- 50 points for 5$
- 100 points for 10$
- 200 points for 20$
Basically, 1$ per 10 points which may not be so bad considering the number of discounts in microtransactions in PoE shop. But there is also another way to attain points and it is to buy supporter packs.

It may be more expensive but it is much more rewarding. For example, a set that will be dropped out at the announcement of the new Path of Exile expansion is 600 points, two portrait frames, a digital soundtrack, pets, shield skin, footprint effect, and a whole armor pack for 60$. So you still get 10 points per 1$ but also you acquire MTXs equal to around the same amount of points as you get from the supporter pack.
