Sure, desperation could be a reason for running a sale. But there are other possible reasons as well.
Let me ask you something. Does a dumb chick know when she's being used for sex only? Not really... takes a lot and she takes a lot. Cough.
Now does a smart chick figure out when she's being used the same way? Yes she does. Maybe not instantly but pretty soon.
Now replace sex with milking for cash. Don't you FEEL that you're not even CCP's **** buddy anymore? At least in the past they were less obvious... just sayin'
edit: also its the first time they openly advertise PLEXes as tools for RMT and encouraging people to use them for RMT (when in the past it was just a really well thought way of reaching all target audiences - eg: the 12yo kiddies who don't have credit cards but can farm all day)

You do realize that the ISK from a PLEX doesn't just come out of thin air? And the gametime it creates doesn't disappear till the buyer uses it? PLEX is an enabler for those who don't have the means / want to pay for the game while still being able to play and generate content, with their subs paid by someone with lots of disposable income.

Or this. But it's not an "empire building" tool or "massive space-ship army" tool either.

Let's put it another way. I don't buy plex with cash and I ignore the NeX store. Multimonth subscriptions come out to less than $15 per month per account. With my 2 subscriptions, that comes out to less than $30 per month that I spend on this game. Hardly an expense I give a damn about.
