Next time why not just give everyone some t2 bpos... or 1b units of trit... or crash the price of anything you want!
The other Items were funny and great... but thanks for loosing me about 10ish bill.

Or, you could do something about it yourself, and start podding people (or hire someone to start podding people) to get them to have to buy new implants.  You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

Haven't they given these out for the last two Christmases? "I find mining to be an incredibly relaxing thing to do after work. It's like fishing without waking up early. Or cold. But the beer, the beer is the same." - arramdaywalker |

Oh wow another guy crying because he attempted to profit from risk-taking and it backfired, as was a possibility inherent in said risk.

You invested in the last few year's Christmas item, and were shocked when it was also this year's. "I find mining to be an incredibly relaxing thing to do after work. It's like fishing without waking up early. Or cold. But the beer, the beer is the same." - arramdaywalker |

I'm not crying because there was a risk. I'm cross because CCP just decided to do something like this without warning. Something they have never done b4 that affected the 'player' market. |

See above. They do this every year with this same implant set. "I find mining to be an incredibly relaxing thing to do after work. It's like fishing without waking up early. Or cold. But the beer, the beer is the same." - arramdaywalker |

This is balls. Will CCP randomly seed more t2 bpos? they have never done this b4.... there needs to be warning before they fuq with the markets. On every patch notes so far that have effected the markets or players they have given ample warning!!
Actually there was this thing called invention that resulted in various T2 prices to fall down heavily once people were no longer tied to T2 bpo's. You can ask how hulk BPO owners felt like when they no longer could sell their stuff for 500 mil/each and had to settle for 200 mil/each which then went down to 100 mil for while.
Face facts, CCP is bound to do shenigans that affect value of goods, prepare accordingly when planning long term business. |

They do not do this every year.
They did It once (as usual) nicely introduced. Then did it this year without warning, smashing the market value. |

Maybe it was only last year, hold on I thought it was 2010 too but I could be wrong.
Regardless, investing in holiday rarities is always stupid risky. There's always the potential for popular ones to return. "I find mining to be an incredibly relaxing thing to do after work. It's like fishing without waking up early. Or cold. But the beer, the beer is the same." - arramdaywalker |

At least they're thinking. It's apparent you didn't and now you can't cope with your 'loss'. |

The risk inherent in dealing with seeded items is that they may again be...wait for it...seeded.

LOL, how much time did they give people to react? Months? I think that is slightly different. Its like them re-releasing Zephyrs in another gift, when in the item description it says it will only happen once. |

CCP 2011 = Merry Xmas, we are going to give you a brilliant implant in 2 weeks, just this once (see item description)
Me = 2011 sounds like something to invest in as prices will only rise!
CCP 2012(on the day) = Have some more.
Me = FFS  |

I'm just baffled you're still playing the victim here.
It's just like the Festival Launchers, they seeded the first set years ago and said there wouldn't be more, which drove the prices up. Had I bought and horded tons of them then they just released the new ones, it'd be entirely my fault, not theirs.
Hell for an IRL example, its like buying a bunch of Coca-Cola Christmas memorabilia and hoarding it because its worth money, then they rerelease the same thing next year.
Its just bad trading, period. Its not CCP's fault, its yours. Calling everyone who points this out to you a troll doesn't make you any less wrong in this situation.

Dude..you invested in the equivalent of Elvis commemorative dinner plates, with predictable result.
I mean, if some ambiguously worded flavor text on an item is good enough to get you to sink ISK into something, then I've got an amazing business venture you got to hear about... |
