If someone wins an auction then backs out is that okay?

sure is, until you get the isk and start the transfer they are free to change their mind

So, I'm trying to get this straight - if I sell this character, then someone will transfer ISK to this character. I then have 24 hours to transfer the character to that persons account.

Do I transfer the isk from this char to my main before or after I begin the transfer of character? Does it happen automatically?

Thanks.
No, it does not happen automatically. You will have to transfer the Isk you received for the sale manually from the sold character to any other character in your possession prior to starting the transfer. The reason is that characters that are in the transferring process are unplayable, so you will not have access to it.
In the unfortunate event that you already started the transfer but forgot to transfer the Isk first, ask the buyer to return the Isk to you asap.
If the buyer refuses or does not reply to your request, file a support ticket. In that case a GM will transfer the Isk back to you.

I hope that answers your question.

You got your money back, right?
The transaction is not biding until the pilot is actually transferred.
So it was allowed for the buyer to pick higher offer and return the isk to you (as he did).

Hi,
I am considering selling a toon on an account I no longer use to fund my projects elsewhere. (Not this one)

I have a some of questions please?

1. Is it ok to plex this account as a one off to begin the sale process?

2. If yes to question one can I leave the account inactive until the sale completes/bids start coming in then plex it for the sale/transfer?

3. The rules state that if I pay the transfer with 2 x Plex they must be in the redeeming system. What does that actually mean?

4. Where can I get a true ISK value for the toon I'm thinking of selling/auctioning

Many thanks in advance for replies.


Apologies if this is posted in the wrong place.

Are you sure about that?

Your account needs to be active and paid in order to be able to sell a toon. The toon itself must be in an NPC corporation, and all contacts informed that you sell it.

2. If yes to question one can I leave the account inactive until the sale completes/bids start coming in then plex it for the sale/transfer?
Read above.

3. The rules state that if I pay the transfer with 2 x Plex they must be in the redeeming system. What does that actually mean?
When you have PLEX, right click and reverse-redeem them. They will then be in the redeeming system and you should see them on the website as well. This is the only way you pay it, unless you shell out actual cash to transfer.


4. Where can I get a true ISK value for the toon I'm thinking of selling/auctioning
Check the Price Check forum and post there.

Many thanks in advance for replies.

Someone tried to transfer a character to me and they got an error saying their account was locked out of character transfers. Do I just get a refund now or after they get a response to their support ticket. What if they refuse to provide a refund?

Im looking to buy a character. Can I just start a trial account and have it transfered there? Or do i have to plex the new account? How much playtime does a transfered character come with?

They need to open a ticket to find out why. You can raise a ticket asking for a refund if this does not work. CCP will take the money back.

Are you sure about that?

You need a funded account I believe

Are you sure about that?

I am thinking about buying a toon on here. But I have a question. Most of the names of toons are just terrible. Is there a service or a way to get CCP to change a toons name after you make a trade?

I intend to sell this toon and i have already put him up on the bazaar. I want to pay the transfer with 2 plex. I am in Jita. Do I need to buy said plex and have them in my item hanger before the transfer or just have the isk amount in the wallet for the tansfer. i am confused on this.

Does editing a thread count as a daily bump?

Editing an existing post in a thread does not count as a bump. However, creating a new post for whatever reason does.

The PLEX needed for the character transfer payment need to be in the redeeming system. So yes, you can buy two PLEX in Jita and then reverse redeem them. See this article on how to do that.

For a detailed description on how to move characters to or from a STEAM account, please read this knowledge base article.

That is unfortunately not possible.
