Noble Exchange Items should be available for ISK. These items would not be permanent. After a set amount of time the item would disappear. Prices could be adjusted based on the ammount of time the item would last.

ie. 25,000,000 ISK for one week
100,000,000 ISK for one month

"Rented" items would not be allowed in avatar pictures, or photos could be flagged and withdrawn if a rental item is inuse for the photo and is not currently being rented.

I don't believe that this would hurt CCP's pocket on AURUM useage, if anything it would help it. After renting an item or several items, a player might find a look he/she likes and then decide to purchase those items with AURUM making them permanent.

How about a way to convert a plex into aurum? And a way to buy PLEX from other players using ISK? so you would be indirectly using isk to buy at NEx Store... hmmm wait, I think it already exists....

Please read these!

However that (other than taxes) is not an ISK sink.

actually, it is a way to get more isk into the system.

Instead of cloths, I would think trinkets of all sorts could be used to spend isk on in order to pimp out one's quarters so it's not always grey/red/green/gold industrial settings. I mean even just giving us potted plants with a built-in hydrophonics system or 'simulated plants' (fake plants that behave like live ones) would be an upgrade.

However, given the lack of WiS and thus no means of having one visit another's quarters, there would be little need to have an all-dark ocrhe desk with matching bookshelves, and a simulated window behind the desk.

NEx and PLEX simply doesn't affect isk production/ destruction, they only make the isk change hands while give CCP some money.

Eve economy is something really complex. There are many ISK generators and few isk sinks, althoug the player base slowly grow what can be count as a virtual isk sink.

Maybe my prices are a bit high and prohibitive. This is to involve new players in the NEx or those who are not willing to pay for a plex to exchange into aurum. Also those who would like to try on these items before making a full blown aurum purchase.
