Umamasyean	Posted - 2007.06.05 23:08:00 - [1] How do you do it, if so.
Marine HK4861 Caldari Seoltachd	Posted - 2007.06.05 23:29:00 - [2] Edited by: Marine HK4861 on 05/06/2007 23:28:46 Provided you're on a paid account, giving ISK is easy - right click on your alt's name in People and Places, Give Money. Items is trickier - you can set Contracts, leave them in a corp hangar or put them inside an anchored can in space. With the last option, don't forget to bookmark where the can is before you fly off. Edit: profanity filter doesn't like certain typos.
Tkar vonBiggendorf Gallente MAG black strategic colition of nations Hell Hounds	Posted - 2007.06.05 23:29:00 - [3] You can't share ISK on a trial account. On a paid account, find the character you want to share with in People & Places, right-click, and "Give Money" For items, use the Contract system, private Item Exchange. The other character will have to pick up in the same station it was contracted in.

Tkar vonBiggendorf Gallente MAG black strategic colition of nations Hell Hounds	Posted - 2007.06.06 01:33:00 - [5] Your alt doesn't need to be an officer, just needs to have "Take" permission on the corp hangar where the ships are.
Baka Lakadaka	Posted - 2007.06.06 02:43:00 - [6] I haven't tried this, but you could sell an item to your trial account alt using a contract. If you say sold one unit of cheap ammo for say 1,000,000 ISK it would be pretty much the same as giving money between characters. Like I said - haven't tried it, so let me know if it works.

Don't try this using the normal market system though - as this will only work if the one unit of ammo is the only one of its type for sale in the station. Otherwise the person selling that type of item at the lowest price in the station (or perhaps also within range of your station) will get your 1mill isk.

Yes, we get frequent whines from people who have attempted this without knowing how the market works. It is very risky. The basic rule of market PvP is that the cash goes to the seller with the lowest price and the goods go to the buyer with the highest price. You cannot bypass those rules. If someone is selling an item for a lower price at the same station where you are selling it for a higher price, the full amount of ISK will go to the lower priced seller even if you clicked on the higher priced order when making your purchase. Edit - BTW, trial accounts cannot use contracts. Originally by: Jeffrey R. Holland No misfortune is so bad that whining about it won't make it worse

Are you saying that if I am selling an item for 100 isk and somone else at the same station is selling the same type of item for 10 isk, that they will get 100 isk if somone tries to buy mine?? What happens to my item? Does my item go to the buyer and the money goes to the lowest seller? Sounds like a real exploit is possible here.

What happens to my item? Does my item go to the buyer and the money goes to the lowest seller? Sounds like a real exploit is possible here. The lowest seller gets the money, and the lowest seller's item goes to the buyer. Your goods (and wallet) are untouched. I suspect this is actually to keep people from circumventing the "can't transfer money from trial accounts" rule by using regular market orders, but I don't know. Example from my own experience: Say I have a sell order on a batch of "teddybears" for 1000 isk. There are other people who are selling teddybears in the same place for higher prices. Most of my teddybear sales go through at 1000 isk, but every now and then I will see an entry in my wallet for a 1500 isk transaction, or 1244.19 or whatever. They had clicked "buy this" from a higher-priced seller in my station, but they got one of my bears and I got their money. ----- We are all stardust... some more often than others.

Well my theory is stuffed then....if you can only use contracts on paying accounts, then you might as well use the give money option. I was never suggesting that you use the public market for this - it's way too risky.
