It is a strange product in that it costs more real money to use a PLEX to pay for game time than it costs to sub it, so people are going to sub their accounts more and more as the price rises and lower the profit for CCP in the long run, I'm sure they got a nice cash injection in the short term.
Short term thinking for a game that has been running this long is a bit odd. |

For a short time. I doubt the market would take long to adjust. (Though pirates could make good from careless people shifting PLEX in unwise manners) |

They were floating around a billion just before the ISBox policy changes too.

well i disagree,i think prices of plex will start to fall when supply and demand slopes,the amount of users buying will drop due to less people playing eve,numbers say we dropped 10000 members online in the last month(since fuzziesov),
so less people = less plex being bought

Short term thinking for a game that has been running this long is a bit odd. I apologize, but you make it sound like it's either of two things:
1) Something that CCP regulates; 2) Something we must rally to fix to help CCP or something.
I am confused.

Sweet. I'll cash out once it hits 1.2 bil. I got greedy last time and it collapsed before I could sell off.

Multi-training is up there too, it gets held onto, sold, held onto some more. CCP has said PLEX changes hands a couple times on avg. I don't think the avg player understands what's going on nor how it actually effects player online numbers factoring in the introduction of multi-training as well. Some of which I'm sure are bitter wow vets ashamed their game took a slump and see every game as on the ledge ready to jump off and die. Well here's hoping the next wow expansion brings back their flying mounts so they can stop their ragequitting and return to the only game that makes them heppy.

You know the people buying them with cash aren't using them to sub their accounts right? They're selling them for isk to people who ARE using them to sub accounts. What you just said makes no sense, because as long as I can sell plex on the market, I will buy it from CCP with my credit card.

I'd be worried about plex if they suddenly became 8~10 bill
That's about the top end of "flogging in and full time making isk to pay for subs" sort of prices.

think its the opposite way around, people sub accounts instead of f2p so thats 9.99 extra for ccp instead of a carebear grinding for a month to buy a plex off the market, then people will buy plex for rl cash because of the amount of isk they will get. ccp will make more profit from this

Wrong! People will stop plexing and either quit because too expensive or pay the 3 months/6months package from account management. Either way is bad because the rising plex prices is due to the rapid decline in subscribers and this is still summer. Makes you wonder what's gonna happen to eve when school starts. |

Someone is still buying the PLEX I buy off CCP with my credit card. There are still PLEX buy orders all over the place. This doomsday scenario you're suggesting is highly unlikely.

thanks The inverse is also true. Less people playing=less people buying PLEX with cash to sell on the market. The true equilibrium is somewhere between these two points. |

I'm not gonna grind 1 billion to buy a PLEX. My target price was, and still is, 750 million.So when I don't feel like paying 15 euros to play another month, that will be it, time for another break.
73% of EVE characters stay in high security space. 62% of EVE subscribers barely PvP. 40% of all new accounts just "level up their Ravens". Probably that's why PvE content in EVE Online is sub-par and CCP is head over heels for PvP...

Why should there be equilibrium when it can just keep rising?
