A proper way of doing this could have been isolating niche fun ways of playing and selling packs like that, giving newbros incentive to go do some research. A newbro doesn't know that he doesn't know Stratios wh diving is a fun way to play Eve. Offer him a "Stratios WH Diver" content pack and now he knows what he didn't know, does some further research on youtube and he is good to go. What does the pack include? A properly fit Stratios for the exact purpose, all the skills (books and SP) automatically leveled for a core Stratios WH Diver (drones 5, amarr gallente cruiser 4 or 5 etc) and a few skins to have fun with. Have the price meaningfully lower than the total ISK value of the items, and you're good to go.
" Fleet Stealth Bomber "
" Solo Sin Hotdropper "
" Tornado Gatecamper "
" Sabre Nullsec Fleet "
" Crow Small Fleet Tackler "
" Navy Slicer FW Fighter "
" VNI Nullsec Ratter "
" Rattlesnake C3 Completer "
Not only you have meaningful content packs that are financially making sense to purchase, but also you make newbros aware of what they don't know and push them to research more. This! You already have that. Its called buy PLEX from CCP and sell it to other players for isk. Then you buy all the stuff from the market. If you don't know what to buy, there are lots of information sources out there. If you want to bypass the market and buy ships directly from CCP you break the game. Mining, Industry would become worthless. Missioning and exploration also if you can buy a Rattlesnake (or other Faction items) direct from CCP.
Not empty quoting. With this approach you can do anything you want. That is you are not constrained by some package you bought from CCP. Further, it also works with the in-game economy not against it. By selling PLEX you give some player(s) what he (they) want. You get what you want. Further, you do not disrupt the markets by creating stuff out of thin air. This allows for more people in the game than there otherwise would be and all are better off.
Seriously, CCP gives you the "ultimate content pack" and you can't even see it.
