Trying to get my girlfriend that goes to another school a way of buying me PLEX as a gift for our important calendar dates. Is there a way to do this? She's does not have time to play EVE since she is always traveling the world as a model, so she has no other way to transfer PLEX to me.

Please excuse me if there is an option for this, I have not been able to find it on the account services side, and was not sure of Amazon was an option since you need to have it linked to an account.

Thanks in advance and sorry if this is the wrong forum.

She buys timecode, emails you timecode, you input timecode in account management/ingame and receive plexes ingame.

Entitled kids these days. You're not getting married and need to register with CCP for gifts.

Just be happy you have a girlfriend. One that puts up with a gamer nerd for a boyfriend. You start demanding specific things as gifts from her and you won't need to worry about it. She'll be with someone else soon enough.

Why don't you just tell her to give you $20? Then go buy the PLEX yourself.

Plastic models of girls do not count as girlfriends and being shipped from Japan doesn't count as "travelling the world". Pirate

It would be nice for CCP to have giftcards that you send to people.. A gold giftcard that looks like a PLEX would be neat. it could have a scratch off area with a GTC on it.


The way my family does it is they get me Amazon gift cards...and I just use them to buy PLEX or gametime as needed from Amazon.com.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Amazon Gift Cards is another way to go since you can buy PLEX from Amazon. Although I think it might be more expensive than GTC's.

Give her your username/password for your Eve account and she can login into the account management page and buy you plex/pay for you sub. Then you can login to your game and redeem them :)

LOL - Thanks for the laughs and answers!

Clearly, I have no girlfriend... my mom is the only one who buys me gifts as appreciation for still living with her in the basement.

Good man...Blink


And to the OP: I will just leave this here. As you now have had multiple valid answers and this thread is bound to be a troll magnet, it gets a lock.


The Rules:
5. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.
