CONCOD LP is what you get for killing sansha rats in incursed constellations.

I'm not particularly familiar with LP, but i think you're at the wrong station?

Only LP's from specific NPC corporations can be exchanged.
Most NPC corporation LP's cannot be exchanged for LP's with a different NPC corporation.

The only corporation I personally know of that allows it's LP's to be exchanged is Concord. There might be some others, but I don't personally know which ones.

When you exchange the LP's, you do not get a 1 to 1 exchange rate. Most exchanges are 10:8, meaning you exchange 10 Concord LP's and get 8 LP's back from the other corporation. I think the Sisters of Eve corporation offers a lower exchange rate (when exchanging LP's to Sisters of Eve LP's), 10:5 or 10:4, something like that.

The "exchange LP" button is only for exchanging concord LP into LP of the corporation that the LP shop belongs to.

When you open the LP shop there should be a list of items you can buy with their price and a buy button.

edit: change the filter on the top left of the window from affordable only to show all to see all items.

In the loyalty point store, you can only "exchange" CONCORD LP for Caldari Navy LP.
What you want to do is use your LP to purchase something. The "show affordable" filter will give you a list of things you can buy. Since most purchases will require a combination of LP, ISK and items you can choose the "Show All" filter to see everything.

Hello and welcome back to Eve,

It's been a while, had to rack my brain about buying items with regular LP's as well as do a little goggle search about exchanging Concord LP's.

Quote:
CONCORD Loyalty Points

Apart from spending it in the loyalty point store of CONCORD stations you can also convert it to loyalty points of another corporation. Most corporations have a 1:0.8 ratio (20% loss) but there are a few notable exceptions, for example the Sisters of EVE exchange rate is 1:0.4 (60% loss). You cannot exchange CONCORD loyalty points for loyalty points in any of the corporations involved with Factional Warfare or any of the pirate factions. You can convert CONCORD Loyalty Points from anywhere by using the journal, assuming you have some existing loyalty points in the intended corporation.


It sounds to me like you're accessing the 'Exchange LP' button at the top right side of the LP Store when you don't have any or not enough CONCORD LP's to actually do an exchange.

You say you have 80,000 Caldari Navy LP's to spend in the Loyalty Point Store. Make sure you're in a Caldari Navy station and select the Loyalty Point Store icon in the station services panel.

Do not select the 'Exchange LP' button after the LP Store window opens.

Just scroll through the list and see what's available. Some of the LP items may require more than just LP's, such as ISK, Tags and or other various items. After you have all the required items in the station, just select the 'BUY' button at the far right hand side of the LP item. I believe a confirmation box should pop up afterwards, select yes and enjoy your reward.

Hope this helps and good luck to you.

If you want to get serious about LP efficiency, shop around and see if you can get more for your LP from another LP store. Caldari Navy isn't usually very good, because everyone does Caldari Navy missions for standing at Jita 4-4.

There's another similar site too, but I don't have all my links with me at the moment.
