8. The character for sale must be from an active account, you cannot trade characters from inactive accounts.


Has to be active. Maybe you could submit a petition to get the account activated for 24 hours for the sole purpose of transferring a toon. I wouldn't count on it, but it'd be worth a shot

If I wanted to transfer a character from one account that I own to another account that I own is there any way to get around the $20 fee? I skimmed a couple of threads for an answer to this question but I couldn't find one. Thanks in advance.

Whenever a character is transferred before the seller has moved the ISK received from the sale to another one of their characters, the Customer Support team will return that ISK to the rightful owner. The buyer cannot expect to receive both the character and the ISK that they paid to purchase it.

Does this mean if i started it without transferrring the isk off it it will be sent to my other charecter on that account or will it be sent back to the person who was buying the charecter and the transfer will not work?

Could Someone please explain the following?

Rule 17 Whenever a character is transferred before the seller has moved the ISK received from the sale to another one of their characters, the Customer Support team will return that ISK to the rightful owner. The buyer cannot expect to receive both the character and the ISK that they paid to purchase it.

So am I right to say that I receive the isk and have to keep it on the char I am selling? I just don't wish to break any rules should I decide to sell my char.

EDIT: I didn't see the similar post above asking a similar question.

i recomend for those who are buying a chracter, ask ppl for there charcter user id and api key to check on this site there real value http://gemblog.nl/skill/. those who are selling the new api key dosen't work for all so recomend using the old user id and api key from this site https://community.eveonline.com/login.asp?r=%2Fskill%2F&t=%2Fapi%2Fdefault.asp%3F .
actuly did want ask the CCP DEVS if this can be put into rules so that numnuts and new players don't get fooled by resellers

That would be valid if Gemblog's prices were still accurate, but even by looking at something as simple as "no new API keys" shows a lack of updating.

If I have available sp from the learnings, this sp will be transfered with the char or will be lost?
Can I inform in the auction post the available sp?

Thanks!

The auction for this character sale has ended. Allison Kai's 9B offer is the winning bid.

Q: What happens if I do not receive the 9B from Allison?

I cant seem to find out whether or not bids are binding.

If i don't receive payment in 24 hours, am i entitled to submit a petition?

Can CCP actually force a bidder to honor their offer?

hey m8


1) either party can start the "Private sale" thread but usually the seller will do it because he/she has to pay the transfer fee and states who, what , and why the sale is taking place, ie, "private sale"., and all "CCP" rules for transfers will apply.

2) yes, you can pay with a different character than the "listed buyer". after all, the seller just wants the isk.

Just make sure that if you are doing a "private sale" with another person, that a forum thread is made, so if there are any problems, the GMs can see proof of such a transaction taking place.

I myself (this is one of my alts) have been involved in over a dozen character transfers/sales.
I definitely don't scam people because all it will do is put you on the GMS s**t list and you don't want that ever in this game.


btw, because of the GMs very busy schedules, they try their damndest to answer any and all petitions dealing with character transfers asap. just gotta be patient, that's all.

Lets say I decide to get a Price check...but someone offers me a reasonable amount of isk to sell instead.
I agree and start the transfer but then second guess myself and want to cancel the transfer....Is it possible for CCP to stop it and return the buyers isk at my request?

Is character trading supported at all at this point?

if the guidelines are followed and things are documented will a trade be supported?

The new owner of the character may NOT pass himself off as the original owner.

Uhm what does that mean ?

Just means you cannot try and pass yourself off as the original owner...e.g: if a player contacts you thinking you are an ex corp friend you need to inform you have purchased the character and not pretend to be the person he has known.
