PREORDER.

thers your problem

Meh, rage.

Makes me think of that television I bought for 1200.- then 3 month's later it was for sale at 800.-.
Didn't go back to rage because, shrug, 'c'est la vie'.

This. Also, buy products because you think the content warrants the price tag and not as an investment that retains its value.

Don't you just hate the people who don't participate in the forums until they have something to rage at?

Please think before you comment.

I payed 149 EUROs for my PREORDER.

Hahahahaha! Did you think before you posted this whine?

Do you think for even one second that CCP is:

Going to see your post here?
Going to convene a special meeting of their executives and stockholders?
Going to vote yes on whether to submit to your demands for satisfaction?
Going to give you anything more than a "thanks for buying our Collector's Edition!"?

Is there something wrong with you?

well there's your problem mate.

you payed in euros, which are worth more than USD.

you just admitted to being dumb as a shoe.

Unless I'm gone crazy, Pre-orders also got special benefits which people buying now won't get.
Someone who is awake can confirm.

So, don't waste your time and comment it.

Didn't want that ship money anyways.

I won't be purchasing the book, as shipping is ridiculous. Otherwise I would.

Hey there fellow Eve players,

it was christmas time 2013 when I first saw that my beloved collector's edition was offered for 99 EUROs. I could'nt believe my eyes and was very disappointed that I payed 149 EUROs for my PREORDER.

I wrote a petition to let CCP know what I think about that offer:
1. A PREorder helps the manufacturer to get a market sense about his product. He can minimize his risk in selling the product because he knows how the community feels about the product BEFORE the release! Therefore the PREORDER should have a better price than the "normal" order after the release.

2. 50 EUROs ?? 50 ?? So anyone who thought "hmm I don't know, is that collectors edition really worth 150 EUROs?" before release, was now "Oh look, it's only 100 EUROs now, great!" *klick*. And every loyal customer of Eve Online that was like "what? 150 EUROs for the collectors? Damn OK shut up and take my money." Was totally fu**** by CCP at this moment.

Because he payed 50% MORE as a PREODERER! F I F T Y P E R C E N T!

As an answer of this petition, CCP told me that they do understand the anger in the community, but it is a christmas offer and that is nothing unusual on the market. They do though consider the arguments for further offers.

OH DO THEY? - YES, they do. They considered that we should shut the fu** up and brought the offer BACK!
Yes you might have seen that the collectors Edition is at 99 EUROs again for "a short time".

So I thought this is enough...



I CLAIM that you CCP pay at least 3 PLEX to everyone who can prove that he or she payed 149 EUROs for that product.

3 PLEX are not even worth 50 EUROs and besides that fact CCP does not even need to pay back real money. So I think that is more than a generous "offer"

I hereby shout out to every customer who payed 149 EUR for his collector's edition because he LOVES Eve Online and is now betrayed by CCP for this LOVE!

JOIN THIS PETITION AND SHOW CCP THAT THIS IS NOT FUN!



Fifty Euros is a lot of money (not for CCP and their sales team obviously). Everytime I look at my collector's edition I feel betrayed now instead of satisfied and I don't want to feel like that.

A special offer during christmas was a slap in the face. I took that, I told CCP that it hurts, they answered, okay... But a second offer is a shot to the nuts. So, 3 PLEX for that 50 EUROs. Fair enough, don't you think?

Please /sign this thread if you feel the same!

F++r meine Deutschen Freunde, die das lesen: Ich verlange 3 PLEX f++r den 50 EURO Betrug von CCP. Zum zweiten Mal gibt es eine Aktion f++r 99 EURO und ich finde es eine Frechheit f++r die Vorbesteller unter uns. Ich f++hle mich betrogen und jeder der das nachvollziehen kann m+¦ge diesen Thread unterzeichnen. Ich will mein Geld zur++ck und denke PLEXE sind eine faire "W+ñhrung" daf++r.

Oh come on guys... so much boredom on a sunday?

I mean atleast Jess Tanner has a smile for me. thx


Okay all of you damn smart human beeings I will sum things up for you.

1. My "unnecessary capitalisation" is there to draw attention - succeeded (mostly wrong people but still a success)

2. I chose my writing style or often called "rage" or "hate" to provoke - succeeded (mostly misunderstood but still a success)

3. This is a statement to the ccp sales politics. And if you all feel positive about this, it is fine for me. Most of the few that did not just leave their nonsense here brought the argument that this is all "normal". Yes it is normal that most of the industry gives a sh** about reasonable price politics.
What you dont see is that you have a voice, an opinion about that. Are you really that kind of "robotic" that you just eat what they feed you and you take it for "normal" after it happened a few times?

I just don't like it that this price of 149 [add your currency here] does officially (by ccp) not represent the worth of the product. I feel like it is worth 99 and everyone who payed the original price has been ripped off. This is because the discount is VERY high. I feel like this and I know there are many others (where are you guys?) that do too.

And CCP should be aware of this.
