Joss Rockefeller	Posted - 2009.02.05 14:48:00 - [1] well congratulations CCP, you did it again. Ç34.99 for the new PLEX cards (x2) that you are selling on your account page. A 60 day GTC costs $34.99 yet you ask for a massive 35% more by selling in Euros! just when is this going to stop! Im all for more flexibility in paying for this damn game but no more price increases!!!!

Alphaeblue	Posted - 2009.02.05 15:05:00 - [6] Actually, credit cards also will sometimes charge an international fee for processing account charges from CCP. So, beware of hidden fees..

Gold Rogers Brutal Seizure	Posted - 2009.02.05 15:13:00 - [8] Step 1: Don't buy a plex from CCP directly Step 2: Continue to pay via your current method Step 3: Notice no price increase.
Cadaemon Return To Sender	Posted - 2009.02.05 15:21:00 - [9] Quote: Joss Rockefeller Irony overload! Seriously though if you can't afford to play this game with or without some imagined increase then you should probably not be moaning about it on the forums and I don't know... looking for a better job maybe?
Jesusfish	Posted - 2009.02.05 15:32:00 - [10] Edited by: Jesusfish on 05/02/2009 15:33:06 Wait, are you saying that CCP removed the option of buying GTCs in dollars by going to websites like Shatteredcrystal? If so, FUUUUUUUUUU CCP. -rage- edit; not really, it is kinda annoying though.

If so, FUUUUUUUUUU CCP. -rage- edit; not really, it is kinda annoying though. no they did no such thing. they just made it so you can buy directly, and they are in-game instantly. No more waiting for time cards.
Gunnanmon Gallente UNITED STAR SYNDICATE	Posted - 2009.02.05 15:41:00 - [12] Originally by: Fighter awesome You are free to leave whenever you want. Indeed. Can we get some "haz stuffz" posts please?
Ranik Sandaris Caldari The Centurions Eternus Imperium Alliance	Posted - 2009.02.05 15:48:00 - [13] your stuffz can i haz... also MOAR MUDKIPS PLZ KTHXBI
Rosur Gallente Infestation.	Posted - 2009.02.05 15:53:00 - [14] Yea just dont buy directly from ccp buy from shattered crystal or battle clinc. Also ccp should do a proper price conversion rather than have them sold both in $ and euros for the same price.

Flinchey Amarr ANZAC ALLIANCE Southern Cross Alliance	Posted - 2009.02.05 17:21:00 - [19] when i first started playing eve (AUD here) it cost me about... awh... $20 for the first month... a tad under $40 for the first few GTC's now it's $55 for a 60 day GTC fix this CCP, its bullsh- this is currently the worlds most expensive mmo, i may not be able to continue playing in the near future. WoW/WAR/anything else... $40/60 days at EBGAMES

WoW/WAR/anything else... $40/60 days at EBGAMES I don't know what WoW and War cost, but I pay 11$/month for my eve addiction, and I think that's a fair price. /Riv

GoGo Rens	Posted - 2009.02.07 13:05:00 - [23] Edited by: GoGo Rens on 07/02/2009 13:11:41 The point is Europeans are charged the same amount of euros as americans are dollars. the Euro is worth more than a dollar so europeans are paying more than americans are. the price of euro should be adjusted to be inline with the value of the dollar, or the other way around. Or at least give the europeans the option to pay in dollars. If they suddenly started charging americans in euros all the posters here saying there is nothing wrong with it would all be in uproar. (and all the people saying well you can buy gtc from 3rd party sites. the point is you shouldnt have too)
Hirana Yoshida Behavioral Affront	Posted - 2009.02.07 13:17:00 - [24] Originally by: GoGo Rens The point is Europeans are charged the same amount of Euros as Americans are dollars. the Euro is worth more than a dollar so Europeans are paying more than Americans are. The price of euro should be adjusted to be inline with the value of the dollar too Not entirely true. They would have to add VAT which differs by a rather large margin across the European states, so which one do they use? Until the Dollar gains some strength and stabilizes you still have the option of buying from the US resellers - just remember to include the purchase on your tax return so your country can charge whatever VAT applies I would like to see a large discount on direct credit card purchases of 6-12 months at a time. To set it apart from the month-to-month scheme of paying.
Dantes Revenge Caldari	Posted - 2009.02.07 15:02:00 - [25] Originally by: Hirana Yoshida I would like to see a large discount on direct credit card purchases of 6-12 months at a time. To set it apart from the month-to-month scheme of paying. Maybe but I'd still prefer to pay monthly. If ever one of my characters was nerfed into uselessness like Caldari missile users were recently, I'd be able to quit with no loss of cash. I'd much rather roll back to 5 years ago when nerfs were a last resort rather than the norm for every new patch.
Sheriff Jones Amarr Clinical Experiment	Posted - 2009.02.07 15:04:00 - [26] Edited by: Sheriff Jones on 07/02/2009 15:04:35 For my whole EVE career, i've paid 17-18 euro/month for my monthly gametime. You know what? I don't care. If any game deserves to rip me off, it's this. I'll say it again; If 1 or 2 dollars a month more make or break your finance, you should NOT be paying to play at ALL. NOT to mention i paid that sum to play Amarr for petes sake!
Marie Duvolle	Posted - 2009.02.07 16:03:00 - [27] People will happily pay 10% more fo idiot stuff they don't need, get a loan for expensive stuff they can't afford and buy ready-to-eat dinners for 3 times the actual price of the ingredients just because they're lazy. And here's an MMO (which is about the cheapest fun you have to pay for) which HASN'T updated their prices to account for inflation but still people yell and whine. Just one answer for those; GTFO. Don't stir the hornet's nest
Demeterus Caldari	Posted - 2009.02.07 16:42:00 - [28] European prices include ~25% VAT. --- Why are you reading my sig? Did you expect something of sigs?
Tor Anasa Caldari K.T.P	Posted - 2009.02.07 17:52:00 - [29] Originally by: Joss Rockefeller well congratulations CCP, you did it again.

Im all for more flexibility in paying for this damn game but no more price increases!!!! Just buy the 60day GTC from say shatteredcrystal who are still selling them for 34.99USD. You are in fact correct and it seems the new 2x 30 day PLEX cards cost 34.99 Euros not dollars. For those who say theirs was dollars i would like to know how. I tried changing my country on the site etc and it made no difference it was still showing in Euro's unless some has put a euro character when infact it should be dollar character.
Lochmar Fiendhiem Caldari Quicksilver Industries and Painful Effects Inc.	Posted - 2009.02.07 18:35:00 - [30] I play approx $20 CANADIAN a month to play. And yes, that's canadian dollarydoos. so the op fails. Originally by: Halkin bob is dead, goons are great, cheese is cheesy, there we go no need for any more threads
