One of the reasons to buy an account instead of skill a character is to put it as your 3rd slot. I would wager a person buying a low skilled Mackinaw pilot that is one of 10 on sale with the same name as someone else isn't going to set up a new account just for that to be their new main. I would wager it is a side character to mine when something is going on they can't or won't use their main.

Also, many of these characters are being sold using the 2x plex in their accounts to transfer, after they transfer they may go to an account that is paypal based, or otherwise. Either way it is a negative pressure on PLEX. There are many negative pressures on PLEX and until subcription numbers increase I don't see much strong short term support.

Just watch. They don't have the isk to stop what is coming.

I would like for you to be correct Sir, but since you are clearly a grade A moron, I shan't be holding my breath.

Well over 800 again now in Jita. Trend break or correction after steep price fall? Time will tell but I'm not holding my breath that we'll be seeing prices go down much more...

If that chart is your demonstration of "stagflation",I can only conclude you have no idea what stagflation is. How does one determine unemployment in eve btw?

Can someone tell me what is Toad trying to say? I cant comprehend it. Should I sell my freighter full of plex or should I undock it?

btw: It is Charon with T2 cargohold expanders.

Now if only we can see them drop into the 700-750 range, then we'll be witnessing a quite historical event in the PLEX pricing history :P

But I'm not relying on it anymore, I'm leaving, so that means I can complain about it... right?

Thank you, I know very well where the door is. And I still have 2 weeks left and more complaining to do.

I hope that doesn't bother you.

Well, I'm glad that's all over.

PLEX prices are just out of control, CCP needs to do something.

PLEx went up since the beginning with the occasional low.
If you really calculate by how much, you can deduce percentage of capital amount to arrive to reasonable figures.
This can be used to profit from buying low and selling high.
The only time this would change perhaps is when the PLEx system would change, for whatever reasons or factors.

I recently bought PLEx with real money from the EVE PLEx store.
I usually use the ISK from selling the PLEx to fund my EVE time, because I always have higher costs than ingame income.
I usually buy game time or get game time through the buddy program, and get a free PLEx for ISK or time.
This last time around however, the PLEx went to over 1b ISK, and 1.1b and 1.2b ISK as predicted.
I bought 6 PLEx for $100 and then, 5 more or so, while there was a PLEx sale (only 1 during the sale).
I ended up with 13b ISK liquid, but not enough money or internet time.
So , I bought a PLEx with ISK and activated my trader account with 7 days left, because I didn't know when I could log in.
I therefore paid both with money and PLEx at the same time, by buying PLEx with money and selling PLEx for ISK, and by buying a PLEx with that ISK and selling it for game Time.

That's up to you but we could make more if you kept your job.
That would make 4 coders and 1 more business person.
I can't fathom that 1 billion ISK per year is a medium type of business.
That figure has to be closer to 125b ISK to 250b ISK.
(perhaps 250b ISK for a large business.)
