Hello

I would wish to buy a Looking Glass Monocle, preferable a golden one, and for the right eye.

The ONLY sell order that I have found so far is in Jita and that is.. 200b isk! Yes, two hundred billion isk. Which is just... Erm.
Well, I wish I can travel in time, I wish I got some of those shiny things back then, when they were kils 200-300m per each, and there were tons of them in the market

It seems that today the only way for me to purchase a monocle is to contact someone, who can sell it to me, for a reasonable price, not 200b.

Is there a way for me to accomplish such a mission? All I need is monocle.

there werent many of the left ones in game IIRC they came from a dev roam or something.
right gold ones are the common ones, around 9b

Also if you are looking to buy one then you may wish to ask ISD to move this to buy orders

That is nice, since the left ones seem not to bring any harmony to the wearer's avatar, except his owner is not left-handed.

I have a question though. If the right gold ones are so cheap and common, why cant I find ANY of those in the market? Except for the one for 200b in Jita

Because they were removed from the New Eden Store (formerly Noble Exchange or 'NeX') when it was re-branded.

The reason they are less expensive is because the store made them widely obtainable.

iirc, they were never _that_ cheap. There were always several billion each,

Woo! CSM XI!

Dude, there is only 1 monocle currently on the whole market, and that one is for sale for 200b in Jita 4-4

What do you mean by saying 'less expensive' and 'widely obtainable'? :(

I don't see any way of obtaining any single one of them. Because they are just... gone. Either disappeared or sealed within other capsuleers' avatars for everCryCryCry

the cheapest left one I remember seeing was like 20b a bunch of years back.

I bought my right/gold one for ~700m back when they were still pretty new and ccp had given out a ton of free AUR.

the full item name is: Looking Glass Monocle Interface (right/gold)

My response was relative. The one that was in the store (right-eye), though now seemingly rare, is far more common than the other (left-eye).

Right-eye (store-bought) is ~8.5b

Left-eye (rare) is ~200b
