15%

Wait there are people who don't PLEX their accounts

I'm confused...if a third-party retailer is selling items it purchases from the original retailer for 15% less than what the retailer is selling it for, then why is it somehow wrong? Seriously, would you entitled little Euro ***** stop being brats and act your gorram age?

Why, as a paying subscriber...

Oh wait here's a different one.

You are complaining about a company that buys lotsofthings for a cheapr price and then decides on their own who they want to sell it to? You also believe that CCP should officially cicumvent these restrictions (which aren't their business) or FORCE amazon to make this deal available to the global public? Are you nuts?

Wait there are people who don't PLEX their accounts .

Anyway that is what $3 by US standards. So that is not one but 2 whole cheeseburgers off the dollar menu, it be 3 if he finds some change due to tax. That's big money. I say we burn Jita in protest over this .

Amazon is doing the sale, and what you are doing is fraud.

EvE is a global DIGITAL product and should not be subject to prejudicial pricing based on country.

Software and digital items are not the one price world wide. Even the "official Microsoft" price for Microsoft Office can be three or four times more expensive in one country compared to somewhere else.

Big business and patents keep back the development of medicine against a many serious illnesses, ranging from AIDS to cancer, screwing millions of people out of medicine because they don't have the money to please the fat hoarders of this world. Your problems with local pricing are quite marginal to be honest. You did some groceries but the other store had the items cheaper. Baaaaaaw.

Unfortunately, in my place it's not even one burger.

However, OP has a point.

And does Amazon indeed buy and pay for these before reselling. I somehow doubt it.

Please explain in detail how they're doing that.

Ha ha, just tried this to confirm it, and got a glimpse of our wonderful future.

That or, maybe, you know...understanding that Amazon.co.uk or amazon.whatevercountrythatisntamericahahahayoudumbschmuck you use can do the same sales if they want to, its a third party site doing the sales.

The world is run on economics and not goodwill...sadly

FOR ATTN: EvE Store marketing/management (I guess)

I'm currently going through the bullsh*t hoop jumping of trying to buy Amazon digital products from a country outside of the USA. (having to VPN stateside and use a fake address then hope my credit card doesn't screw me over)

Amazon are currently selling plex and game time for 15% off as a Christmas sale.

WHY is this sale not mirrored in the EvE account management? Where all capsuleers from all countries can access it most easily.

Why, as a paying subscriber who pays the same price to play as anyone from any other country (excusing serenity perhaps), am I prevented from accessing these lower rates at Amazon based on nothing more than my country of residence? A product that isn't physical and has no shipping or manufacturing costs to speak of.

True, this may be a result of a blanket digital products policy on the part of Amazon. But if this is the case then any sale on EvE digital items on Amazon need to be matched in price when buying the same item through account management.

EvE is a global DIGITAL product and should not be subject to prejudicial pricing based on country.

Grrrr, those Chinese get their plex even CHEAPER! Not FAIR! I demand we institute Chinese style of gov't so we TOO can have cheap plex.

Is you're country a state sponsor of "Terrorism"?

Oh Good God. Get over it.

Even when retail chain stores have a "sale", the prices can vary even from store to store, locally.

Why are you expecting the Internet to act as a method of "uniform pricing for all everywhere" as part of a fair business model?

Sounds only like self-entitled whining.

According to the US all non-US countries are sponsors of terrorism.
