Isk prices for plex are not CCP's thing (only when you're talking dollar amount). That's players selling them at high price. Nothing much you can really do about it other than wait and see if they go down at some point. And it may never be nearly as cheap as it use to be. Years ago, people went ballistic if plex popped above 400mil.

"Tomahawks?"

"----in' A, right?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."

"----, you pay me half that and I'll hump in some c4 and blow the ---- out of it my own damn self."

Plex destroyed EVE ISK value.

It use to be 400M for ... 90 Days.
In the old time when we was trading 30/60/90 days timecode.

No, ISK value was not destroyed by PLEX: People where just given more opportunities to earn more ISK per hour (instead of T2 production cornering the market and everyone else being forced to live off of the scraps that fell from the table).

ISK has devalued due to more people making more ISK from more sources: It's simple economics. Basically we've been 'Printing Money' for years... It would be nice if CCP could show average player wealth in liquid ISK from 2007/8 and what it looks like now.

The new injection of PLEX by CCP devaules PLEX artificially but doesn't do anything to increase the value of ISK. ISK/Hr is still the same.
