I thought that redeeming a plex is account based not to the character. Unless ofc you exchanged it for AUR.


AIUI what supposedly happened was :

1) OP sells character, character transfer started, character in stasis/locked;

2) Later that day OP buys some PLEX from Amazon;

3) OP logs into account and clicks redeem PLEX.

Now the way that usually works is that the PLEX are redeemed to the character you last logged into, unless you specify otherwise.

The question is "Does that still happen when the character is locked/in stasis?"

If it does then its a bug.

To be fair you have no idea if it was a glitch or if he was telling the truth.

If there was a glitch it would have been found out a LONG time ago.


Also dont comment on my family up bringing over a game, its pathetic and shows how pathetic you are for saying that. My parents were both Christian so :)

It's a game, I received the PLEX from someones mistake and I am within the rules to keep them.

Classic justification. If according to some error in the way a law was written, you could kill someone, would that make it right? Keep kidding yourself. You know you're in the wrong. You're just being greedy.

OH, and nice forum alts by the way. LOL

With my 1 alt xD

Like I said, I leave this in the hands of CCP

Blown massively out of proportion.

To my knowledge of the rules im doing a legit thing if not then CCP will demand a refund, in which case thats fine, i dont really care.

I operate 18 accounts for resale and other purposes but I always log out first. Besides 6 plex do not cost that much to some of us and I would consider it lose change but you really shouldn't be such a ***** about it.

Interesting never sold a character or bought one.

But I would think once you start the process of selling a character there should be a lockout for them.
ie nobody can log in to the character or give / remove anything from them till the process is complete.

I find it hard to believe something like the OP is describing hasn't happened before.
I know CCP states that scamming is not allowed in regards to character sales, so I would think it would apply to the entire process.

I guess this is just another good reason to stay away from the whole buying and selling of characters garbage.

Scamming isnt allowed on character sales.

For example I say im for sale 5 bil, someone sends me 5 bil and I **** off with the cash, thats character scamming :P

This doesn't really fall under that category.

Like I said If I hadn't received a torrent of abuse from the Seller I would have happily sent them all back. But now I will see where this goes with CCP What?

If they do decide to refund it wont be out of my pocket, due to the fact what happened has nothing to do on my part. I receive the character with 6 PLEX, not my fault but i'm not going to turn them down as its not in the rules to give them back, in fact the rules say everything on the character is transfered to the new owner.

Like I said and like someone else said above me , if it really is a BUG then it would have been picked up a long time ago and should reported in the correct manner not posted on the forums.

This is really getting tedious now and I just want to leave this case alone. I'm not a bad person but im not a rich one either, if someone leaves item on a character I purchase freely and within the rules I see it as a bonus. In no way am I a thief Nor does anyone apart from CCP know if the seller is telling the truth.

In no way was he / she forced to put PLEXE's on this character by anyone, it was done intentionally or by mistake, either of which it doesn't matter... its the same outcome and doesn't break any rules on my part.

So please, lets lock this stupid stupid thread and let CCP decide in due time.

If the seller was actually abusive, please show us. I'd like to know.

Actually what I said had nothing to do with you or the OP per say.
I was actually surprised that the plex was transfer;d to a character tagged to sale.
Those characters should be completely locked down to protect the buyer and the seller so that both parties don't have to deal with this.

And I believe it will come down to when CCP decides the contract was binding.
Any changes afterwords effectively null in voids the entire thing and sends it back to square one.

Showing in game messages is prohibited, so are screenshots.

A place where the Seller actually breached the rules earlier.

Also items cant be transferred to characters in Stasis / Transfer mode. That is a fact as I have tried to do it with Christmas gifts etc.

Didn't see any sign of them being abusive though.

Unlike you.

So, let me get this right. What you're basically telling us is: 1. The seller abused me, but you have to take my word for it. 2. Because he 'supposedly' abused me, I'm not going to do the right thing. 3. Even though I've admitted that I think CCP will probably give the PLEX back, the bug that I KNOW does exist isn't actually a bug and it's totally fine.

It's obvious you're being extremely defensive about this whole thing. Maybe that's your conscience talking.

How strange someone post their own abusive messages :)

I'm not breaking the forum / privacy rules and risk getting banned from them though , So Believe what you want, your opinion does not matter to me in the slightest because you have no involvement in the case Blink

And I think (So do many in game ISD's and players) that I am within my rights to do what im doing. I would be surprised if this went in the sellers favor but if it does then thats for CCP to decide, not some big mouthed child like your self :)
