Buy PLEX.


Well if you do that then you are causing Eve-wide inflation according to some here. You cause mineral price increases and ship price increases. Do not do that for all our sakes.

You can only buy PLEX if by buying it you don't cause it to go up in price.

Every PLEX purchase causes inflation.

Yeah.. I use 14 plexes a month... I know someone who uses 32 a month (and he isn't even a botter). Out of everyone I know, I can only think of two people who pay for their accounts. Which is actually changing here soon since they are getting into marketing to the point they can pay for the 2-4 accounts. Since multi-character training came out plex prices have gone up in price. Indicating there is either more demand for them, or less people buying them.

Also considering that the number of active players at prime time has gone down in the last couple years. I highly doubt that it is a high supply of them, if anything more people buying plex would lower the prices of plex and ships/modules/whatever would go nowhere in price. Ships are in such a high production. They will continue to float slightly above material price. Just as the ships hardly raised in price when the Plexes went from 300m to 500, back to 350m-400m. Now they are 600m and ships are still pretty close to material price because everyone mining/missioning in high sec is kicking them out like they ate bad mexican food.

I appreciate the advice so far. I have gotten myself a trading alt with maxed trading skills. going to start out just trading small stuff for now. set up a spreadsheet that shows me margins after taxes and stuff. I need to start researching secondary markets to maybe seed some fw hubs or mission hubs. are there any corps or something that helps newer traders? I joined the scc-lounge as well.
