bah some are desperate after PR
 
“This only continues to prove the long-lasting value of items in our virtual economy,” said Klas Moreau, CEO of MindArk. “That an item which is over a decade old is still increasing in value demonstrates that participants can make profitable investments in Entropia Universe and get immediate value by having an amazing item at their disposal, while also knowing they can turn a profit in the future.”

This only continues to prove that people overpay for things way too often, lol.
 
still a long way from Dota 2's $38k courier, and that is pure vanity item, it makes no difference to your game

EDIT: take it back, thought it was about the 5K invis armor, not the terminator

It's about the terminator??? I thought would be about the invisible armor.... lol.

"Avatar known as “Divinity Deth Undefined” had acquired a one-of-a-kind virtual weapon known as the “Dub & McCormick Terminator” for $51,796 US."


Well, if the price was meant to be a secret, it's blown now, lol.

It´s bullshit tho.. You can not name many items that have gone UP in price after the last two years og mindarks aimed attempt to crush whatever markup that is left in this game.
 
Should it be valued at not worth?

Sad to see them falling back on this stuff in press releases it's as if we've got nothing else in EU.

While on Gamasutra I spotted this

How_to_Make_Games_that_Last

MA really need to good hard look at section 5.

He might have bought the item.
But he really don't own it.
Not according to the eula.
Section 4. Ownership and Proprietary Rights.

These days it's a instant loss when you buy directly from MA, MA setting the pricetag is bad for the community. :)

Think I'd rather have a Tesla for that price. Least tesla holds value. :]
 
I wonder how much this would value today in "Common Dung":eyecrazy:
 
Yes, the one single item in all of EU to have gone up in value since the Project Entropia days

“continues to prove the long-lasting value of items in our virtual economy,”


:scratch2:

Not sure if MA is this disconnected from their economy or just lying through their teeth.
 
"$51,796" - wonder how tough the negotiations were to reach such a fix price :laugh:

Anyways, nice PR - sad story for the buyer ... he might have upset the "Gods" - who knows ? :laugh:
 
I want to see the 2005 promo video that won the gun but cannot find it.
 
I thought that happened a while ago.. :scratch2:
 
2 players won the event and one or two guns were won ?
