Hey guys,
Important note here. This is about learning. We need to learn about this stuff. We are just dipping our toes into the water here, seeing how this all works while being careful not to mess up the economy. So far, we've been successful at protecting the EVE economy. PLEX prices on the ISK market are currently unaffected.
We aren't making a lot of money but that's not the point.
Any questions? |

Downtime starts in 15 minutes and will make some small tweaks to the store goods at that time (and add a few new items.) |

It takes a lot more work to be able to make a system where the players can make the goods. We will do it. We want that very much. But it's going to take time. All of these goods are going to be a lot more fun if they are being made by players. |

I've got one pair of "cute high heels" coming in the next month.
The suits and tuxedos and such are being developed as part of our "corporate collection" which is months from now. We are in the "military collection" now. Also coming up is our "cyberpunk collection."
I've seen some amazing sketches from our fashion designer for the cyberpunk collection. I may have to create a female character one of these days. |

We don't yet have targets for how many pieces are designed for which tier. Some of that is purely artistic freedom for the artists who design the pieces. Also, this is because we can't currently create new items as quickly as we'd like.
We are using a combination of in-house designers, outside art production, and in house art direction to make these pieces. And yes, we are hoping they can eventually pay for themselves and contribute to the EVE development budget.
But initially this is just about learning. And you'll see us doing things with prices to try to learn more. |

We added some new items to the store just now during downtime. May I draw your attention to the "Nightstalker" goggles for 1500 Aurum?
Obvious part: we need a lot more affordable items in the store. As soon as I can, I will get them and stock them. |
