On the up side, we can still truthfully say that eve does not have micro-transactions.
Nothing micro about spending more money on internet clothes than I do for my clothes IRL. Though they do probably look better on my avatar than they do on me.

Just think of the items in the noble exchange as high end exclusive fashion. It's not that hard to find clothing that costs as much as a ferrari in the real world. Exclusive items are worth what people are willing to pay for them, when marketing exclusive items at people who buy super carriers by the dozen, you can afford to charge a lot.
It should be worth keeping in mind that if they made the NEX items too cheap it would over inflate the value of plex and deflate the value of isk. Large fleet battles sound far less impressive when you hear about how they destroyed a fleet of 100 capital ships with an equivalent real world cost of $3.50.

How would this deflate the value of PLEX? It would just make Aurum items affordable, used, and a minor PLEX sink, leaving PLEX prices mostly alone as they were before the stuff exists.
I said inflate the value of plex, not deflate it. Increased demand for limited supply increases cost.

If you see someone wearing one of those 12k items it tells you several things.
1) They have money
2) They are a bit dumb
3) They have a good chance of being CCP alts
For the lolz

Guys, 12k AUR... maybe not everyone may buy it.
But still... how to use this oculars?! I lost 4 PLEX for item that is not working o_O
You need to be at the station with the monocle in storage, then you need to go to character re-customization. It is under the glasses tab.
