Hi Gogela, here is a copy/paste from https://secure.eveonline.com/PLEX/

If you want to use a PLEX you already have in-game for services on the Account Management site, you will need to go in-game, right-click on the PLEX item and select “Reverse Redeem”. This will transfer the PLEX item back into the redeeming system, ready for use out of game. Don't worry, you can redeem and reverse redeem any PLEX as many times as you like. Want to read more about this process? Check out our EVElopedia article on PLEX.

Best regards,
CCP Tyr


So people who fly plexes around in there ships are just keeping the gankers out there happy?

Yah, that didn't escape me either. Looks like it pays to read the forums, eh? Anyone who's lost PLEX in a cargo hold is probably going for the full face/palm right about now...

Actually I tried it, and doing a "reverse redeem" then locks the PLEX to the system. You cannot redeem it in any other system.

You can redeem it into an item into the same system you last redeemed it. You can also redeem it into game time from the "Assets" screen -- you do not need to be present in system with it in your inventory to do that.

What I was trying to say is you cannot use the "reverse redeem" method to transport PLEX safely, but there is never any need at all to transport PLEX in the first place, unless you plan to sell them on the market elsewhere.

Ah.... I see. Well... actually that's a good thing! That means there's no way around having to move PLEX in game. Good to know... thanks Petrus

Yeah, I found this out when I wanted to sell a PLEX, and redeemed it in Jita, then realized it would have sold for more in Rens. I had to haul it over there, and couldn't just reverse redeem then redeem it in Rens.

Any idea when are we going to be able to start buying our tickets?

or any idea how much plex it’s going to cost, It be awful telling my rooks that it’s one plex and its not. Also some of us are trying to scrape some money to be able to watch it in time. 800 million takes a while to rise.

Any news regarding the HD stream and its pricing?

I for one would like to purchase as a lot of my corp are going fanfest but I cant attend.
Plus the ingame items look pretty cool.

Thanks

To all regarding the HD stream sales.

Fanfest stream, will be available to all for free and we are trying to make it so that most time zones can enjoy it.

And yes, we will offer the HD version of the stream for the price of a plex or around 20 USD/EUR. Pricing has not been finalized.
You will receive the in-game t-shirt and ship if you go for the HD version.


Details of this will be added soon to the Fanfest website and other channels.


Look forward to seeing you all at Fanfest or at least enjoy seeing you commenting on our EVE TV feed Big smile

Can we trade in a plex for an HD stream? If so, when you announce the HD stream on the Dev blogs, will you please give step by step guide as to how we take a plex we have in game and give it to you for the HD stream.
