The market vitality will be preserved by the ISK:plex:AUR exchange rate, along with attrition - characters going inactive, and potential playerbase growth this coming Summer.
With apparel, it is much more different due to the second hand issue.

Except the going PLEX/Aur/$/ISK rates put the cheapest of the posted SKINs at 740 Aur, which is about 200m ISK, or roughly $5. Where do you see the 50m ISK ones? As well as a significant number of SKINs going for upwards of PLEX costs, which then leaves a person with the choice, pay for 1 month of game time, or paint my ship some half obscure color most people won't notice cause they will never look that closely at my ship? Heck half of the color schemes are just a few shades different than the standard colors... This is going to be good reading once it hits TQ. I can easily see most players looking at even just a short list of ships they fly and schemes they want that would easily equal being able to pay for an entire year's worth of game time, and that is just a short list. I really feel bad for the people that get suckered into this full out and spend 10's of thousands of Aur on SKINs.

That indicates something happened a day or two before the blog. There were no new threads, or blogs, or updates to Sisi, to account for it. So what's left? A leak. As Sherlock Holmes would say, whenever all other possibilities have been eliminated, whatever is left must be true. You know what happened a day or two before the blog, people realized it was about a week before the change was going live, which is prime time to do market speculation, I was planning to actually do all my speculating this afternoon when I got home (was going to spend this morning figuring out which old skins I wanted to stock up on) but then I saw the blog and it was too late. Anyone that has been following this and having our feedback ignored since the very beginning knew it was coming and the smarter ones just jumped on it a little quicker than the rest of us. As i have stated before, I agree, this may well just be coincidence. But surely, someone from Internal Affairs or Security can do an investigation just to be on the safe side... Ultimately, no one gets hurt if it is genuine speculation, but if it isn't, wouldn't you want to know that someone is commiting foul play?
You people are nuts!
The patch deploys on the 28th, of course there is going to be more demand from entrepreneurs closer we are to D Day.

I thought the system would work like that when it was first announced, but seeing objectively - the demand would've been exhausted in no time under such conditions.
So yes, ship-type specific SKINs is what we have currently.

Odeva Pawen wrote:On patch day, how will the conversion of market orders work? will the skin items themselves stay on the market, or will they just be dumped in the item hanger?
Blueprints on market -> Returned, converted to Redeemable licences and broker fees refunded.
Ship hulls on market -> Returned, ship converted to the base hull version with a SKIN licence placed into Redeemables, and broker fees refund.
I think.
CCP Terminus wrote:Idoru Yoshikawa wrote:Being Minmatar, sadly I won't buy any of the Minmatar skins. I was really looking forward for some cool Minmatar skins and truth is I got a major disappointment.
I find MInmatar SKINs not worth spending the ISK/AUR. No stripes like some Caldari ones, no different colors like some Gallente ones. Nefantar and Krusual skins just look as a slightly polished version of the regular ones. They just look the same to me and most of the times because of light in space, you won't even realize the ship has a different skin.
I would find interesting to know what percentage of the skins sold are Minmatar. I bet it will be a small amount compared to other races.
Definitively, I don't find any Minmatar skin that makes me think my ship will look different at all as others definitively do. And the "rust and dust" aesthetic argument doesn't feel valid at all, to be honest, when we are talking about optional skins.
If you make MInmatar skins that are worth buying I'll be the first one to get them. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised in the future :) (no I can't tell you when)
Buy all the Rifters! (Gò»-¦Gûí-¦n+ëGò»n+¦ Gö+GöüGö+

Any possibility of the code used to generate the ships for this being released, or made available over the API? Making an app to pull the generated WebGL pages after selecting ship and paint job from a dropdown menu would be really fun.
The system which they have created surpassed my expectations by a very large margin. Not only are the colour variations practically unlimited irrespective of faction or type, but the lights and other ship effects can be modified as well - a currently untapped potential.
I can only imagine what variety fills the Chinese Eve server Serenity, as they are culturally known to have a... disposition towards this kind of things.
But I've seen the one special Mega from there... OH Dear Lord God!
DaReaper wrote:Not sure this was asked, if it was sorry.
Are the skins locked to the char? like if i get rare skin with only 10 available and add it to my account, is that now locked and i can not then decide in the future to resell it? Cause that would be a drag.
Any SKIN licence is per character only and is consumed on use: If it is a Permanent type - it doesn't ever expire.
Any SKIN licence which is redeemed to your account can be freely trade on the market and between players, just as PLEX is.

If I do that, the only thing I can conclude is CCP/Aurum moneygrab. I should probably state that I happen to have a few of these, and while it might appear that I'm trying to milk their worth, I'm really not. As you said, there are tons floating around; they're far from rare. It just sticks out like a sore thumb when ONLY these are temporary, and seem to contradict the whole concept of having a skinnable options in the first place. Maybe a better question would be: what is CCP wanting to avoid if these were to become permanent? How can there be a money grab for something that isn't obtainable with money? That's really the fundamental difference there. Please tell us how to acquire Aurum without paying money GÇô I'm sure that I can't be the only one who would dearly like to know.
Purchase PLEX and convert it to 3500 AURUM.

Four point seven, if you take the Rifters.
I don't view it through the "1 month of game time" lens. This system will serve as a healthy wealth transfer from the more established players to the new generation. Much like how the PLEX works now.
Opportunities abound!

This system will serve as a healthy wealth transfer from the more established players to the new generation. Much like how the PLEX works now. Opportunities abound! Since plex is the only thing that consistantly goes up in price I suspect that the 'older players' you mention are sitting on quite a lot of plexes bought at quite a lower price. So in reality it will cost those players less for skins than those having to buy plexes now.
And where does PLEX originate from? Arkonor trees?
Your point is... beside the point.

Regarding ze Minmatars: https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Ammatar
Quote:The Ammatar were originally known as the Nefantar Tribe, one of the seven tribes of the Minmatar. During the Amarr occupation - when the Empire invaded the Minmatar homeworlds - the Nefantar collaborated extensively with Imperial agents.
