Torfi, if you're able to spare, say, 50 of CCP's reserve of LE copies for a later US TZ release, I'm sure there'd be a bunch of US RPers/players who'd love you? Priano Trans-Stellar is recruiting!

So..... more people would have been able to buy these limited copies if it was announced in US prime time?
Don't forget all is not lost, the content is still available on non-limited release. And for less money! |

I've been involved in IGS kinda sorta since I started, but really got into it a little more than a year ago, and something like this would really help, not only because it could help fill gaps in my knowledge, but also because it's supposed to have new information which lets me go further. (my backstory being retired navy turned propulsion engineer, more up to date lore on stargates and warp drives would be great). I do sometimes struggle a bit because I need to do more reading. |

You need to wait for the actual physical plaque, the code is engraved on it...
On the subject of the LE code! So, uh, any chance the special space barbie clothing could have the female version of the Ishukone Sterling dress shirt? Pretty please? :x also, will you clarify what this means:
Quote:Exclusive clothing for male and female characters*. Something comfortable for your avatar to slip into when reading chapters about the corporatocracy of the Caldari, slave mines of the Amarr, or the glistening streets of Caille where everything has a price. * Clothing items remain exclusive to this product for 6 months.
can the clothing items be put on market, or is it locked to the redeeming account? or after 6 months it will be available through LP stores or NEX?
thanks Rainf1337 on Twitch |

CCP's sometimes come under fire for 'limited edition goods' being available through a later marketing bonus. This makes it clear that the vanity items are a timed exclusive, which is to say exclusive only for a period of time-- after that, the good may be added through other means. Usually, though, CCP's been pretty good about not going hog-wild with vanity items. Consider, for instance, that Ishukone Sterling shirts are now on market for ridiculous prices-- because most of them have been bought up and are in collectors' hands.
Similarly, Genolution gold pods are starting to creep up in price, as are Phanca arms and all the rest of those things. Priano Trans-Stellar is recruiting! Interested in nullsec combat? Research? Exploration? Contact Priano Trans-Stellar: elegant solutions for the State's needs. |

It's exclusive to this offer for 6 months. It may be seeded elsewhere ( TBD ) after 6 months. It basically means that CCP does not promise that it will stay exclusive forever, but hasn't determined if and how and when it will enter the game by different means. |

This is definitely legitimate. I wonder if CCP was surprised by the rate of sale, This is true. We did not expect it would sell out in 7 hours, to be honest. It caught everyone happily by surprise, save for those who missed the announcement.
Come on! I was asleep when this was announced, and when I wake up it has sold out. Please, PLEASE go back to the factory and make some more. I don't know if I speak for anyone besides myself, but it's collector's edition or bust for me. Go big or go home. Balls to the wall. Put up or shut up. If you're not first, you're last.

This is bullshit. Seriously. Was going to get it but what's the point now. I'll find a way to get it for free when it comes out on e-book just out of spite. If you're going to do limited/special editions, give people a chance at least.

I'd also like to second the suggestion that the countdown for the memorial would've better been suited for this. When I first saw the countdown I got excited and thought I should stay up till it hits zero cuz I might miss out on something....no, it's a memorial that I don't care for.
But when it comes to something where timing DOES matter, there's no foresight or thought that a countdown or devblog or announcement might be a good idea BEFORE starting sales. Seriously this is a slap in the face. |

Missed out.
Where is the website for the Australian distributor?
Also for future reference. This is the kind of announcement that deserves a countdown. I can post on a forum, therefore I represent everyone.

The EVE store has sold out.
I have just ordered my copy of the limited edition from somewhere else.
I'm not going to say where, as I don't want the hordes of US players to know. But Australian players have a local option, a little detective work and local knowledge should be enough for you to figure it out. I can post on a forum, therefore I represent everyone.

Trying to do this as well. Sadly, I fear I lack the "local knowledge" you speak of. |

Found one Australian store that has it but it's not clear if it's limited edition or not. Judging by the price, it's not.
This is getting really frustrating. |

Could someone at CCP pull out the whip and make those designers sign the other limited editions as well? It's a small step from signing 600 litho's to 2800. Just some extra overtime would do it. I guess they would gladly sacrifice their wrists for extra customer satisfaction ? |

I have to echo t0rfi's sentiments here, the entire team who was involved in the production of this book are simply astounded by how fast this sold out.
CCP Gnauton was literally jumping up and down and highfiving people, and myself and the rest of the writers are incredibly happy.

Dear CCP / t0rfifrans / Falcon
My first impulsive move was to write a much flamed, angry, rage-quit words for you. However, I set down, and then went outside for some walk, and now I am back here to try to explain my frustration. As Manic Velocity, wife came to ask why I was staring anguish to the screen. Then she said almost the same.. That I really deserve the book. And so I run to buy it just to get even more frustrated because your Eve Store do not ship to my country. Why? Oh dear, why? Eve it is a MMO, which means that it is played for almost everyone in the globe. Why the good stuffs have to be sold only to a selected ones. And do not tell me that the majorities of players are in Europe / EUA and they could buy the book. Why they were privileged and I was excluded? I am an eve player like then! Please, which all my 9+ years uninterrupted of eve heart, I urge you to think about it. I know I and not making a crazy demand. I just want to be treated equally. I just want to have eve stuffs like everyone else. Again, please, think about it. Sincerely,
Castelo |

Reading the devblog, I get nostalgia thinking about the E-ON magazine days.
Nostalgia will make bad business decisions and I won't be purchasing this book, since it's only snapshot of the new eden universe and not a continued monthly/quarterly recurring magazine. Eve rule no.1: The players will make a better version of the game, then CCP initially plans.
