Translation:

"I know you can get way more than 1 billion for the ship. But I wanted make others pay the 17.99 and then scam the ship off them for a billion a pop and later sell them for 6 billion a pop. I should have posted this on another forum, but I know when people notice it, they will keep the ship for themselves and leave me out of the loop."

Yes. That was pretty much the plan.

You are new here... aren't you? Well... welcome to EvE I guess...

How the hell do you misread this?


I wonder how people know it is the Amastris what you are going to get. The offer says "Iteron Mark IV Special Edition". Doesn't specify "Amastris".

Yes... I am indeed very new... just a few days old. I wish people could send me some ISKies to get a new bantam. My old bantam was blown up @ the belt by an evil can flipper and now I haz no ship :(

I'm new, please give me ISK.

Yah... they screwed up the ad. The picture in the ad is the Amastris edition, and there is no "special edition"

Edit: Also, yah just to satisfy my curiosity I checked and you've been playing since 2006. I just assumed people got better at EvE the longer they played. My apologies and condolences.

Fortunately, the more of these ships there are, the faster the price will drop.

That's dependent on how many people do this though. You would think eve's market equilibrium would reach out to the RL in cases like this, but if you look at the price fluctuations of the Ultramarine Edition Iteron IV it doesn't always happen. That one you get through the Japanese version of steam... but that hasn't happened. Initially they were like 8 bil ea and came down to 4 for a while... then they went as low as 1.8 bil before popping right back up to almost 4 bil again, where they've been for weeks. It may be that people who do this will be in a minority and not able to satisfy the market, in which case this will be a better deal than selling PLEX for a while.

They are doing it wrong. They need to put one up for sale at 12b... buy it with an alt... repeat a few times... then put it up for 6b.

Dear CCP: how does "living in the USA" constitute "display[ing] extraordinary aptitude in capsuleer training"?

It doesn't let you buy it if you don't live in the US?

Yup

I've tried fake U.S. address, and VPN through Miami but no go. I need a U.S. CC.

Sucks as I want a few of these without paying 2B+ iskies.
