As a suggestion, instead of making Refining cost money, how about using this method to prevent a level 20 character getting a Red+10 Platinum Pickaxe.

Each time you refine (+1) would cost a bar of the same(ish) rarity. A total of 50 Bars would be needed to advance to the next rarity. Obviously if the item starts off green then you would start by feeding it gold or platinum.
