So I am trying to think of a way that people can get me ISK for Christmas. I am thinking they can get me PSN gift cards as those are available in most stores and then I cna use my DUST account and buy a bunch of AURUM with that PSN money. Then I can transfer the AURUM to my EVE character and buy AUR items and sell them for ISK?

The only thing I don't know what will work is if you can transfer AUR from DUST to EVE.

Any other ideas?

There is no transfer between Dust and Eve.

It's not the same Aurum either. Dust Aurum is worth about a tenth of eve aurum.

You can't buy PLEX in stores. I can't asked an 80 year old woman and other family members that are equally computer illiterate to find the EVE online website or any other one that sells PLEX and email me the codes....

Alternatively, y'know, you can accept that "beggars can't be choosers" and therefore you should accept whatever that lovely old woman gives you with a smile.

And then take it to the pawn shop.

Sounds like someone needs to buy EvE accounts for her family
