This sucks, I bought a GTC 2 months ago for 610 mill a 60 day so I thought thats fine im ok with that still sucks seeing how i was paying 180 mill for a 30 day 2 years ago about anyways, now its closing to 800 mill 2 months later!! CCP still makes money off who ever buy the gtc, but now its just keeps going i wonder how long before players will stop playing because they play to Pay!

last time it was anywhere near this high was because eve was infested with rmters buying gtc's so they didnt have to pay with a visa or use RL monies.
prices have climbed in the last 5 days too... 700m to 820m isk.

The irony here is that the main reason for the price increase over the years is CCP going and raising the prices of GTCs. Once upon a time we had 30 and 90 day GTCs, and the 90 day ones cost about what the 60 day ones cost now, the free market has little to do with it, the production costs were just increased >_>
(PS for those of you who weren't around then: The price of playin eve for a month literally went from 150mil to about 300 in under a month when they did that) |

PLEX for scuba gear in Pakistan is partly to blame.

GTC codes used to translate to game time for one, ISK for another. With PLEX, the middle man is running the show. Even for the people who buy thier GTC codes and sell them as PLEX ingame, the price is dictated by the middle man market group. |

They only did that ONCE, quite a while ago. And the price went from around 170 to around 240. Whoop-tee-doo. That DOESN'T explain why a PLEX went for 260 mil in early January 2010 or early March 2010, while approaching 330 mil in June 2010, nor the current 380+ mil price level (which is currently heavily speculation-driven).

Then start paying with cash, or find ways to earn more ISK with the same amount of playtime. OTHERS certainly seem to have found ways to do it, because otherwise the PLEX trade volume would have dropped like a stone.

Yup, it sucks, but it is a player driven market. Prices are only that high since people are willing to pay it.
Pretty soon people will get ****ed with it and their sales will decline, prices will drop and the whole cycle will start over. This isn't the first time, and it won't be the last. Just stock up while the price is low and laugh at whine threads when the price is high.

Considering the evil infidels are artificially keeping the USD low, I might actually pay for Eve myself this month.
Thanks, China!
