If people aren't buying it for isk, then it's not selling for isk, which means it won't be worth buying for real money either.
Also, IB4L, as this is probably a troll thread. If it's not, then it is rumour mongering, which is also against the forum rules. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita.

Just as a coffee table question I would say no.
They really don't need to do this. Prices are high because people aren't buying them in the store. The reasons are a little more than I want to go in to but it really is a matter of EVE not being a pay to win game and until there is a power shift people have nothing to do but make ISK in the game. |

If CCP was a mufti-national corporation I would totally agree with that.
But they're not. They're a small game company with a niche game that they are desperately trying to keep afloat. They're not going to do something as blatant as manipulating PLEX. They couldn't afford the hit if they got caught.

Agreed. You could say there is a pay to win scheme in EVE but there isn't even demand for pat to play and the pay to win scenario, even at 800 mill a plex is in the hundreds of thousands US to be effective. |

People have realized it's cheaper to sub with real money and to instead use the isk they grind to buy PLEX! Which they'll sell for more isk next month! isk > RL money!
Or something.
I suck at rumor-mongering.

Often I see PLEXes and buying orders posted around Jita for prices substantially below or above market cost - up to 500 of them at once sometimes - and it look like it's being done to stabilize prices. PLEXes are being posted in multiple systems with 10-15 seconds intervals between contracts - like it's done by the same person with multiple opened clients.
It's strange. |

Except that if nobody's buying PLEX for ISK, sellers will lower their prices until they do.
PLEX prices are sustainably high because people are still willing to buy them with ISK. No, this isn't it at all. Make it more... psssshhhh. |

Its a conspiracy !!!
As far as there are enough people willing to buy "overpriced" PLEXes, then NO... no conspiracy is happening...
Average newcomer and noob can earn 2 B per month by L4s, incursions, exploration etc.... 800m per month is almost "nothing" compared to "back then"..
"Back then" = (when PLEX was 250-300m) a 100m isk was big pile of isk... thats why it cost 300m and now it cost 800m...
people just earn more isk / month, because its easier to... . |

Hmmm.....
I wonder if thread #32334897598349857 on this subject will finally address the fact that people cannot live without their alts.
Or if they chose the correct "endgame?"
Or if they will understand what "player-driven" means?
Or if they will understand the concept of "economic bubble?"
Etc.
Etc.
Etc.
Etc.
(Sorry, been so many threads, cannot keep up with whatever convoluted reason people have to ***** about PLEX prices.)

This.
Also, OP and everyone else interested in PLEX prices, please take a look at EVE Fanfest 2014. Economy Panel video (I've linked the exact timestamp where the talk about PLEX starts, so you won't have to search for it). It's a shame that there is so much interest on EVE forums about PLEX prices, but the video itself has only 7,500 views 1 bil-30 days-5% loan available - collateral required: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=352279 |

If the amount of accounts remain the same, the plex price doesnt matter... Only difference will be if a few or many people buy plexes. So in the end, it doesnt matter for CCP. |

High PLEX prices will probably hurt CCP in the long run. I now a few people that have let their alts sub run out because they can no longer earn enough isk to buy PLEX each month without grinding incursions.
I predict things are going to get a hell of a lot worse before they get better. |
