Also, since plex is at a billion isk its a good time to sell them
But kf sale happens price will drop right?

So ill have to buy them at sale then wait a few weeks for price to rise again to sell?

The purpose of the EVE Online forums is to provide a platform for exchange of ideas, and a venue for the discussion of EVE Online. Occasionally there will be conflicts that arise when people voice opinions. Forum users are expected to be courteous when disagreeing with others.

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.

Off-topic posting is permitted within reason, as sometimes a single comment may color or lighten the tone of discussion. However, excessive posting of off-topic remarks in an attempt to derail a thread may result in the thread being locked, or a forum warning being issued to the off-topic poster.

I have removed plenty from this thread already. Please discuss the topic at hand, not the merits of individual users.

No, prices will keep climbing, past 2b likely. See last years state of the economy fanfest vid.
No reason for it to ever drop, not of any significance, anyway.

I'm in it for the money

Ah, a PLEX price thread...ok... OP. if you want more serious talk about PLEX prices, there is a threadnought about that in the Market Discussion part of the forums

However, if you just want to feel better about PLEX prices...here, just listen to this for all 10 hours and you'll feel great!; Awesome Face Song 10 Hours

As for the next PLEX sale, I think CCP usually has a sale over the Labor Day holiday weekend...but are you planning on buying so many PLEX that the small savings will make much difference to you?

I expected it to pass 1b last fall at this time, but was off by a year. I probably underestimated enthusiasm and cash PLEX purchases following industry changes and fanfest.

Seeing as 1bil is a bitnof a psychological boundary, and also how the cost of PLEX relates strongly to multibox miners who are huge PLEX consumers, Id think its a good time for a traditional CCP PLEX sale, especially as the high translation rate to ISK atm is very motivating for cash buyers to quickly grab some isk to support their non-profit ingame activities.

On the otherhand looking at server population figures, Im seeing less pilots, which is concerning, and an impetus for cheaper cash PLEX to lower the threshold for people to keep multiple accounts/toons training etc while this new sov situation is sorted out.

I agree with Webvan.

I think 1 billion is way too low. Now 2 billion, that seems about right. Get working for it bitches. Big smile
