They've said many times they wouldn't release more, as for why shouldn't it have the same prizes, gee maybe because they said there wouldn't be any more of the ships ? Or how about because it's boring ? Why not have the same prizes every year for the Alliance Tournament then ?
It's frustrating to say the least.
I used to fly my Silver Magnate all the time. CCP re-balanced all the ships a few years back and never touched the Silver Magnate, giving it just base stats. I honestly think the last time I flew in 0.0 was when you could triple MWD it, still fly sometimes in empire.
Yes, I bought it because I used to be a collector. I do remember CCP saying they would not be re-released.
That being said, I understand the reason for them to be re-released, I don't think an alliance tournament is the way to do it. It extremely limits who can get these rare ships.
That being said, I would prefer the original ships to remain significant in some way. Just releasing all these extra ships does nothing to the current owners but de-value them. |

Not really in-context for long time owners.
The last sale price of a Silver magnate I've found was ~600 B
An approximate 350% increase in what I paid for mine.
What can I afford to lose?

You can "afford" to lose anything you invest in a hangar ornament?
Seems like a great investment doesn't it?
"afford to lose" has nothing to do with collections. Collectors buy stuff because they want it. If you can afford to lose it or not doesn't matter because the goal of collectors is to create an assortment of hanger ornaments. Everyone is EVE has a different goal. Why would anyone question that goal?
