Missing SKINs from classic skin discount sale?

It's great that CCP has decided to price the classic skins at a more reasonable range, but a lot of them seem to have been taken off the market in the meantime. Is there any chance they could be re-added to the NEX store for the sale? Many think them bland, but for those who actually like some Justice black or Torhadar blue trim, their absence is making it hard for us to actually spend our money.

The Valimor Legacy, Justice and Trondahar Ink SKINs were put on sale going back several months, with announcements that the sale for each would be for a limited time before being withdrawn from the Aurum store.

Each has since been withdrawn, and there is no indication from CCP as to whether they will ever be re-introduced. A few can still be found on the in-game markets, if you want to pay the high prices for what is for now a limited edition.

About half the Trondahar Ink skins are still in the store, and a number of Matigu Seabeast are missing. Given how recently Matigu Seabeast was introduced, it doesn't seem likely that only half of them would suddenly get pulled. Considering the art assets are all done, I don't understand why the classic skins can't all be listed in the store. With the new lower prices people will be wanting to impulse purchase through the ship tree visual browser anyway.

You're right about the Trondahar Ink SKINS.

Anyway, CCP's policy on SKIN sales has always bemused me, so I'm not trying to explain that - just saying that they did announce the withdrawal of many SKIN lines.
