Yes, I know I'm over a year late, my apoligies.

http://gemblog.nl/skill/

There are still some other things wrong, not in the least that some of the newer skills and ships will be determined as unknown, as they're not in the database yet. I'm also not sure if the pricing is still on the mark, so any help or comments on that would be appreciated as well.

Cool, thanks for updating it.

I think some of the skill prices could be off, Eveboard reports my skill value as 10,113,189,500.00 but the Appraiser reports it as 9,087,541,191.00

Thanks!

Does not matter, as your appraisal site low-balls people for greater profit margin when you and your buds resell characters.

I can easily attain 24 billion isk for my alt character in the current market trend, but your appraisal site states that it is worth barely 18 billion isk. Would love for everyone to checkout their character value through the site and compare it with values that players get in the market now. Evaluate the rates that this site lists for the different skill train types. LOL.

Petitioned to have your site removed from the price check resource listing. It is an obvious tool to manipulate character values without offering an actual accurate service. CCP should not openly endorse a deceitful attempt at providing false values due to the lack of alternative created by CCP.

You are an idiot. At the end of the day a character is worth what people will pay for it.

It’s always interesting to see what tools like this say but it will never truly define a characters value.

i just appraised a few chars including my own and i agree that it does lowball abit but it also doesent factor base cost of skill books correctly, for instance my rorq able char was valued at 500mill worth of skill books but for capital ships+rorq book was 900mill alone....just my 2cents

imo a properly skill character should be worth the price of plex for its age.

IE if char is one year old with 22m sp it should be fetching around 6-7b isk assuming no wasted skills etc. more if highly focused.

I have multiple accounts I use to mine with. after retriever's trained then I create an alt and train combat/pvp skills with and may sell those. So what your saying is in the end, the account itself will cost me nothing by selling the alts.

Interesting.

I have been at this character buying and selling for 2 years then I started a Price check service. Your tool simple has never really valued any tools correctly. I have rarely seen a toon sell for what that site tells its worth. A lot of the time it says for many many billions more.

Unless you can create a system that watches market trends and compares similar toons sold, the sight is only good to get a figure and then add more billions to it.

Has you ever went so far as chose to go even use want to look more like do?
