I think this is one of the best things to come out of CCP in a long, long time.
I have a crappy old geforce 285, thats struggling to run all 4 clients at once.
I'm more than happy to pay 10bn worth of plexes for a new gfx.
If I can't get one of the first 100, tough luck.
In the end, 10bn isn't that much.
Even if they had charged 15-20 plexes instead. It wouldn't matter
That way, theres a higher chance for us who can afford it, to get free gfx.
It saves me money, that I'd rather spend on my family/kids

It's still an upgrade from a 2 y/o card.
And again. Its free, since I dont pay to play - and yes. My gaming time IS free - since I mostly play from work. |

I've already answered that question. I'm perfectly willing to pay 20 PLEX for it. I'd even buy two.
I'd be perfectly willing to sell you a 560 for 20 plex. Hell, I'll even sell you two. Bad Bobby wrote:
Even if I look at the time it takes me to make the 10b for the 20 PLEX versus the time it takes me to make -ú100 in real life, this offer still wins. But I fully understand that isn't the case for the average EVE player.
Not really, just as I can afford my decadent lifestyle, I also recognize a bad deal when I see them. Even averagely intelligent people, regardless of income, would too.
I think it would be an EULA violation if I bought a 560 from you.
But if CCP wouldn't mind, I would buy 10 from you right now.
Now I don't know how your wallet looks. But for a lot of us, 20 plexes is basically peanuts.

It is peanuts. But the point is that it is a old card (a rather bad one too) and that doesn't make much sense why you'd buy one, for plex or rl money.
Because it's better than the gfx I currently have
Because I'm spacerich
And because I can.
The same reason why I would buy a completely useless supercarrier *cough revenant*.
Just because I can. |

I guess CCP went out and burned all our plexes on a pubcrawl, and pulled off the best scam to date. |

Even if I had to pay 60% of the card value in taxes, It wouldn't bother me.
It's still cheaper than buying it in a store.
And I can always buy more plexes in jita if I should ever need them.

I have never been to fanfest...so yes. i was one of the 100 who got one within the 1 minute and 48 seconds :) According to some sites was 66 seconds, either way, i was there prolly like the rest of you hittin refresh for hours ;p Yeah. i was one of those who was spamming the f5 key every 5 seconds for several hours. Also.. ccp say 1 minute and 48 but i call bullshit.. i reckon it was under 30 seconds..
The time CCP said was really accurate.
