I'm really happy you're doing so well for yourself and you've achieved so much in this short space of time. I do find it unlikely you were trusted with such large sums of isk (and why you were trusted with said sums) so I'd like a bit of an insight into that if you wouldn't mind OP.

I'm sure you're doing a great service and aren't profiteering by misleading the general public at all, and am really glad you're taking time out to do all of this at absolutely no cost.

I would consider this post as a sincere EvE citizen concerned about the wellbeing of the community if you weren't the one bragging left and right how you make a killing buying and selling toons.

Provided that all scams regarding characters are not allowed, I can see how the source can be trusted. It just makes the character re-sale ripoff business much harder when people know what the characters go for, doesn't it? :)

I make my profit regardless, I'm really more concerned about someone doing something out of the kindness of their hearts.
that **** can't be healthy

I can confirm that I was trusted recently with a decent sum of Isk, however in the air of professionalism I don't think it is right to disclose what that sum was for, as that is up to my client to decide if he would like that information made public. Trooper and I have become friends through his requests and seeking guidance on character buying, I did him a favor to help him maximize his buying power and it required that he trust me with a lump sum. Just take a good reference at face value is sometimes the best policy, he is not my alt or affiliated with me previously as I'm sure he would be happy to attest to, he is just a genuine dude seeking genuine help, which I'm always happy to provide.

Reasons why I run an excellent service appraising characters and helping people buy or sell:
1) I am a stand up individual, and I like to see other people make profit, and in turn enjoy the game to a greater degree.
2) I enjoy the game most when I am helping other people, and sharing knowledge about areas that I am well versed in.
3) I am browsing the Bazaar daily regardless, so adding clients and giving appraisals is really not that hard to add on, these services have excellent synergy because they each strengthen my network between clients, making individual sales easier.

You are looking for a hole in my plot, or some way in which I will turn this eventually into a scam I'm sure so let me help ease your mind a little bit: scams aren't profitable, or possible in this area of the game, verbatim. I am a business minded individual with a passion for this game, and I want something that is long term and profitable. As stated in the OP (it's no secret), I will eventually look to turn this business I have going into a subscription based or fee based service that will offer people a much quicker sell or purchase, at a better price than they would have got by listing it or finding it themselves.

Think of me as a Realtor for characters, and to build reputation, trust, and respect from the community I'm on a hunt for likes and positive feedback to kick things off. You don't need to seek deeply for a motive, it's right there in front of you included in the OP, I'm just a legit nice guy with a ton of experience trading characters. Feel free to use my service or not, if you would prefer that!

Cheers, thanks for the rephrased questions. Cool

So to be clear you are just a broker, I dont have to transfer the characters to or from you to do business with you? You will put in the leg work to maximize the the sale price and minimize the purchase price of a toon.

Do you also keep a list of special interest toons to match with buyers later?

That is exactly correct.

In the future I will charge isk for this service, but for now it's actually free too! Twisted

So I've been playing Eve Online since 2009 and I've lived in WH Space, K-Space, and for the longest time nullsec on my main toons. By far Defiant is one of the friendliest and most detailed analysts I have seen when it comes to toon buying. On the Net Promoter Scale I rank her a solid +10! Blink

As the person in question I can confirm I am not an Alt of Defiant (which would illicit a perma-ban for both of us per the TOS I believe), and I did in fact use his services to help me purchase several toons. In my case helped me convert PLEX to ISK (due to his higher accounting and trading skills, he minimized taxes and fees so I got effectively more ISK than I would have had I converted myself- to the toon of about 20 Mil as I recall). This was not RMT, as I bought the PLEX from Amazon redeemed them in-game, and then contracted them to Defiant who placed the sell orders in Jita and then immediately donated the ISK to me, taking none of it himself.

While I agree this is far-fetched in this dog-eat-dog universe, I can attest to my explicit and implicit trust in Defiant and the way he handled this transaction for me. Once I had the ISK I was the one who contracted for the character swaps, via the character bazaar, and all CCP rules were followed.

As for the underlying service, as I and others have stated, his analysis of the worth of toons, and therefore the value one can get on a given toon was without peer IMHO. He pointed out holes in given toons to me, advised whether those holes would be easy/hard to fill, and what if any discount/savings I was going to realize vice a pure calculation on time/implants/skillbooks trained from scratch.

I am not a professional character trader, and used this service to "buy time" by converting my RL dollars into PLEX, and those PLEX into ISK, and the ISK into purchasing toons that would allow me to do what I want to in the game without grinding the skill qeue for months.

I continue to highly praise Defiant as a person as well as his (still free as of now) service, and I am eager to use his services again.

As it has now been several weeks and the OP has yet to get back to my PM I would have to NOT recommend this 'service' to others. Rather unfortunate as I was looking forward to having a chat with OP about what it is exactly that she/ he does and how including them would aid in my endeavour

I responded to quite a few mails over the holidays, perhaps did miss one or two during that time.

I'm now again responding daily to mails and taking on more clients so feel free to reach out to me if you are in need of an appraisal or help buying or selling, but please try your best not to be this guy:

No, that's not a formatting error on the copy paste, the mail did actually look like that! =D

Formatting your mails to be legible will help you get a faster response. If I get a headache from reading your mail, there is a chance I won't respond right away.

Sorry about that again!
