Why on Earth would you store value in a collectable LOL?

Plex is much better as it’s tied to RL money. A darn cosmetic is not.

I am happy that you store your ISK in plex. It’s a wise move. I wanna say it’s like EVE’s equivalent to gold lol.

Plex will never crash and CCP keeps an eye on it.

The summary of what ts says is in this:

> [@Mr\_Epeen](#):
>
> CCP: Buy this really expensive once in a lifetime pack/show up in person event and get some “unique” and “exclusive” stuff.
> 
> CCP Two years later: Buy this really expensive pack with the same unique and exclusive stuff that we gave you before.

No point to discuss if ccp could do this or not, the point is in **trust**. That’s why i don’t stock any of these “unique” packs etc. in numbers (just a few for quick resale) - no trust. The recent example was just a few months ago with Gilded Predator skins for eve anniversary which were rereleased in just one month after initial sale 🤣 Even i wasnt prepared for this ;p

> [@Aisha\_Katalen](#):
>
> t’s almost as if some people had prior knowledge

It’s not a secret for any trader, but i’d say that there’s a ~2 weeks of spike sale before any update affecting such items 😉. It seems like nothing changed since BOB times ;p

* * *

But i think you’re all missing most important thing - if ccp is doing **that** they must’ve been really desperate. It’s a 4th time of extractor 1+1 sale. Thanks not in a plex affecting way this time (it was the main reason of plex spike from 3.5 to 5kk). Discontinuation of win7 support. Yeah, this may be just 1%-3% of players, but these are the most old and loyal players, some of wich are community-drivers.

And what for is all this? Another noone-asked-for-sure-to-fail fps shooter? meh…

If your “VET” status revolved around you getting cosmetics you really need to reexamine your life goals and choices.

I am an optimist. I believe CCP is going to keep that pretty exclusive. I like to believe physical property holds more value than a pixel skin.

I understand perfectly. I’d be mad too. Sorry it happened. Ultimately, it’s pixels owned by CCP. Maybe owning a physical replica is better?  
I’d love to have Hecate on a stand for my desk.

Well not anymore. Now it’s just regular skins they sell in their shop.

You just witnessed that they sell “exclusive” items from the 10th anniversary pack, but you are still optimistic they don’t do the same to the latest one?

I would say at this point pretty much every trust about them making anything “limited” is out of the window and with that any attached value or meaning of this items.

It’s all just skins and you should assume they rotate trough them in the cash shop no matter how you got them.

At least that kills all the FOMO. You can always get those skins later, none of them are in any way special anymore.

At this point it’s probably just a matter of time until we see them sell aliance tournament ships and T2 BPO in such packs.

That is half the fun of CSM.

Who and how many get kicked off for insider trading. Its a fun minigame imo.

When CSM stays intact whole year you go damn…they must have some mad auditing defeating skills. As you assume they didn’t get caught off the bat.

One of the first years CSM’s way back for when change was coming…lacked these skills. Saw the changes, came back and bought billions in the most useless junk (at the time) ever. PI and its changes would ofc make all that useless junk way more useful, and profitable.

Idiot or 2 on csm ofc came back and snatched up billions of it. No one would know…lol.

Yeah…quite a leap there.

Unless some permancy to it (like say I must pay 5 million isk everytime it blows up to get a new one)…I’d not see me rushing to buy a Freki for irl money.

It was and still is a dream ship since the AT it came from (2010?..memory is hazy).

But…I’d not spend even $20 for a ship that never leave jita 4-4 really. Since to kill a freki would have even some carebears be a ganker/pirate that one time… I’d give actual use of the freki maybe 2 hours. I am sure some discord would report one of my Chars running levels 2’s by hek to have some really want to find me.

If I wanted to urinate away even $20…I’d go buy 2 six packs of a good high end beer.
