Great! Seems like Fanfest HD Stream (or rather the redeemable items) has finally pushed Plex over 500 Mil ISK apiece.
Apart from me not understanding how the hell this Quafe Iteron got a stable market price over 400 Mil ISK Im really not happy for 500 Mil ISK Plexes.

I saw the inflation of PLEX today out of interest. But I can honestly say I saw it coming.

Watch the Iteron IV Quaff Ultra Ed. to drop in price this week. The T-Shirts are flooding the market and it's actually getting pretty close to parity w/ regards to price of PLEX = Iteron IV QUE + Male T-Shirt + Female T-Shirt. The market will saturate this week and people selling the Iterons and shirts are going to have a very difficult time recovering the PLEX cost of the HD stream by selling the items. However, if you think of it in terms of "hmmm... I'd pay 20-50 mil for the HD stream" than it really makes sencs to get the PLEX and buy the stream and sell the items, because in the end all it will cost you is a few mil in ISK you weren't able to recover from the item sales. Still... I'm assuming moderate HD sales this week and if more people do this than count on prices to drop even more.

How do you feel about this? I feel there are are to many losers who don't have a real job and waste to much time grinding isk. 500 is to damn cheap, it needs to rise to around 1 billion, cause many players to cancel their accounts and get real jobs....then you can afford to not waste your time spending days to weeks to aquire virtual currency where it is possible to aquire real world currency in just a few hours; its easier to spend a few hours aquiring cash to buy PLEX then convert to isk so you can expend it blowing things up then it is to spend weeks to repeat the same process. |

I think it quite depends. Not all money making in Eve is grinding and sometimes it even is fun. And being able to afford Plex is quite a nice thing, though with prices going up it develops a rather bitter taste. For your attention!

I think it's awesome for those who buy and sell PLEX on the market.
Like any other resource, a PLEX is a valid, important part of the virtual economy. People are just playing the market.
Viva la PLEX! |

PLEX Rise in price -> More people buy GTC and convert to PLEX for more ISK -> Market gets flooded -> PLEX lowers in price -> Less GTCs are bought to be sold for PLEX -> PLEX Rise in price

I don't agree with the simplicity of that analysis. Player habits also change when people start PLEXing. I can't speak for everyone, but I've noticed that I have a tendency to abstract the dollar cost of PLEX when I am thinking of my little internet spaceship empire. When I started using PLEX to fund my subs, I thought "hay! this is frickin' sweet! Now EvE is free-to-play forever!" ...but of course it is not. So when times are thin I feel like I need to spend more time getting ISK to buy PLEX... which is not true at all. If it takes 2 hours to make 1 PLEX you are doing it wrong. An RL paper route pays better and at least you get some exercise. Still... it's the thinking I typically lean towards when I am NOT thinking... which is a lot of the time.
I think as more people get "addicted" to PLEX, the minimum supply / price floor goes up, and after inflation, I think that more than anything else is causing PLEX to go up in price. One other thing I've been thinking about is what happens this week at the CCP keynote? If CCP really delivers... if they can actually make the bittervets believers again, all those nutters with 10+ accounts inactive might start actually resubbing their accounts on PLEX. If that happens... well I hope I'll have PLEX in my hanger already because there is no telling how high the prices would go.

I started a thread 2 weeks ago. 4 accounts, 2 Plex run me $95 real cash. Thier "deal" was putting me $105 for 6 rather than the regular $115 for 6. I got lots of feedback trying to make it seem rational but **** before the shovel, none of it explained why I should give CCP more money for the same thing.
There were 1800 Plex in the forge under 500 at the time. Now there are 140 Plex in the Forge under 500.
I sold off a bunch of over priced battleships I had in reserve and bought 4 Plex, cancelled my auto payments. So if high Plex is a problem? I am part of the problem, not the solution. Enjoy the $15 CCP. Just not my $15. |

I feel cool since I bougth a 470M plex as soon as the news about PLEx being used to fund fanfest HD came to my ears, which I will use to pay for my next month in the event of the prices not going down again before then, and I purchased a Quafe Iteron for 350M without need of using a full PLEX on it. |
