Personally I think anyone who is anyone who is someone who refuses to pay with RL money for this game is more than likely to have at least a couple years supply of PLEX stashed away, at least for their main character(s). I know I do. You have to raise the prices to an unacceptable level then KEEP them there to destroy this stockpile and that will take many months if not years. Once the stockpiles are gone, PLEX can happily go up to billions and the end of EVE for anyone who doesn't pay with RL cash occurs. (assuming there really is as few people who would be willing to buy PLEX with cash to get ISK as I feel there is).

True, but on a macro scale, in general the prices will still spike.

Iv seen 5 FIVE rallies hit 520 and they all went down in flames.

Sounds like OP wants some idiot to post a 530M buy order so they can unload their plex, otherwise they would have pushed it themselves and it would have already bin done.

FIVE rallies, professionally done ones with price barriers and everything done right still crushed every single time.

On a side note there are already hidden channels supplying people with plexes ranging from 470-480M ISK per unit, the ones you cant just infiltrate.

On a side note, no, im not kidding, iv seen several with my own personal witnessing eyes.

If CCP wants to push plex, OK we will Deal with IT. as we would have no choice but for the sake of profits, NO, this can only chase new players away without due research.

NO!!
I am not some American bullcrap CEO who needs to churn out a 50% increase in profit every year.
I am trying to drive it up so PLEX is worth MUCH more.

Do you know why the rallies crashed every time?
Its because of those bad apples among us.
Those who can't wait for 2 weeks for the price to soar.

We CAN'T do it alone !

What we should do is drive the PLEX price below 300 mil. Straight

The reason you can not hold the price above 520 is because around 510 CCP starts a sale on plex and the supply blossoms. So everyone is just waiting for you to get it close to that number and close their postions for a profit.


Unless, CCP changes that position you will lose, this is a alot like the NPC items that could be refined as soon as a target price is hit a outside force jumps in and screws with supply.


Additionally every 10 million in price you will have an ever increasing number of people who will look at their real life money and say do I want to run missions/incursions/anomolies or do I want to blow stuff up, the higher the price the more likely the pew pew wins. These people will sell not hold on to the Plex for a better price.

No matter what you do ..
DO NOT sell PLEX for less than 540 mil
Be patient....
sit tight on your PLEXes .
If we all set the prices at 540 and above , the prices are gonna soar , and its INSTA profit for all of us.

ISKs to some are far too easy to earn... so they WILL whine , THEY WILL complain , but as long as you are selling PLEX , and they aren't willing to pay REAL $$$$ for it .
We'll still make a profit tin the LONG run!

LETS SEE TO IT we PUSH plexes to 700 mil!!

WE CAN DO IT GUYS!
YES WE CAN!!



I look forward to watching you get your **** hammered. CCP will start selling them and stick it to you hardcore. Remember it's a Europoean company - they are really socialists at heart and as they said during the last fan fest they are prepared to act if forces start breaking the game. Like tanking out mining ships for those poor empire pubbies, this too they would fix.

Iceland isn't in Europe. That said, you are correct: they use ISK and PLEX confiscated from botters and RMTers to regulate the PLEX market.
