Still lots to be answered

We are sorry for having to ask you several dozens more of questions, but CCP Navigator, what kind of control system do you have in place, to prevent this kind of mistake from reoccurring?

Also what is the future course of the EVE Online's future marketing promotion? Are you going to be reusing any other historical items? Or do we have to live in a constant fear that after having to partake in the promotion to obtain those items, those items will be devalued by future circulation?

Does that keep you up at night?

Wow, some people need to learn to not look a gift horse in the mouth. You're lucky CCP is doing anything for you since your entire claim on this is sketchy. CCP doesn't owe you anything because the perceived value in a digital economy of a marketing promotion tanked.

No. Just like other reputable gaming companies (yes, Blizzard), CCP should uphold the rarity of these items for future success of their marketing promotions. If they say "limited this, special that" in one offer, and then make it available for dirt cheap half a year later, disincentives potential customers from ever participating in the marketing promotions in the future.

Space barbie drama. ''I got a coat an now everyone ahs my coat cry, cry cry cry.'' The same people moaning about these coats are the same people who want to have other items all to themselves. Other items such as T2BPO that let them stomp all over noobs with zero effort from their part, At least this crappy coat does not give them huge advantages. CCP should seed t2BPO's on the market for 50 cents too and make them cry some more :)

You must have flayed the flesh off that dead horse by now.

So, did you not get the Plexes that came with your $300 T-Shirt?

Once again, it was a tied arrangement where CCP advertised the promotion as if the only venue to obtain the Ishukone Shirt was to purchase 13 x PLEXs. Also it specified that the deal was a "one-time offer" which added validity to the expectation that the Shirt will not be available via other venues on an indefinite basis.

I did not have to purchase 39 Plexs, but I did so because of the promotion advertised above. Sure, PLEXs were later used to help fund my other collecting binge, but it took significant time for me to use it. The costs associated with purchasing 39 PLEXs at once included Postponement of purchase and the possibility of gaining index interest.

One time offer means exactly that. The Offer is only available at that time. They didn't say "One Time Item."

You're complaining about a McDonalds re-release of a Happy Meal toy.

Once again, it was a tied arrangement where CCP advertised the promotion as if the only venue to obtain the Ishukone Shirt was to purchase 13 x PLEXs.

No. McDonald's never re-release same toys with their Happy Meal promotion. Reputable companies like McDonald's understand that by having to reissue same items, the impact of their marketing promotions go down. Also they understand that there are serious collectors out there who collect these toys.

What interest does McDonalds have in the secondary market? McDonalds may not re-release toys, but that's because at the scale they operate, the R&D money to create a new set rounds down to 0 (and offers the advantage of selling promotional rights. $$). Neither of those apply to CCP (which has a long history of re-releasing the free tchotchkes they give away).

You're still complaining about a free tchotchke given to you with an otherwise unrelated purchase. You got the Plex, you got a screaming deal on the Plex, and you got the exclusive use of a free tchotchke. You still have the tchotchke.

Oh man, I missed the part where he not only wasted $300 for a non-exclusive shirt, but did it 3 times. This made my morning.

Really, you're going to go back to "if you didn't buy into this, it's because you're poor"?

There was absolutely no need for me to purchase all those PLEXs, all at once.

The very people who would take advantage of a similar offer next time are the ones that won't be buying anything.

Actually, that honor falls to the OP, who read mountains of meaning where none existed.

Have the items been added yet? I haven't had any redeemable items, but then I'm one of those people with the shirt in a container.
