I wanted to be generous and give my officer goodies to some friends.
I had to pay a hefty fee to do that.
What exactly justifies the ISK charge for giving an item away?
I mean, if some NPC were brokering a transaction to secure the exchange, then a charge would be understandable, but as it is, I am just giving.

There is an NPC Fedex agent rolling in gold right now, not small change mind you, rather that hefty 3k ISK per officer weapon money!

where did you come up with 3k for officer weapons. And what will be the charge for other items, such as standard . if it is as well 3k, that is stupid. It probably will be less. I'm just interested in how you come up with it. is it based off what the market buy back value is? |

Multiply that by four or five and you'll get the right number : it is about 13k per officer item. |

that is fkn stupid if true. So CCP is setting the prices of what items sell at now. You only get like 40k from npc for selling back... why the hell would there be a 13k charge per one , even if you do not make a isk transaction...because this stupid I give you then you give me is flawed. I don't see how this is ever going to actually work out to be something worth doing now as far as trading in corp goes. More reason to have a trade window, that puts isk and item at once...and a set % fee , with a skillbook that can lower it. If it is free, it is free... I know I have gave **** away for free in eve and never got charged. How is this going to make any sense with all the other items to be traded in future at current set-up. |

The charge for giving your weapons to your friend in another Region(Real term in Eve Online) is understandable. Someone had to move it. It'd be understandable if we had a choice of where we were and that charge was for the convenience of not having to be in the same spot as the other person.
I got a lot of stuff you want and could just have if it weren't for the trade tax.

As always, this game is a big test. They want to see what we'll do, and what they can do with that information. I don't really like the charge, but I've come to expect these things from CCP, in hopes that they'll use this information, and continually make the game better

Nay, in one instance, I paid 63,247 ISK to give 5 Beacon's swarm launchers to a friend. That is 12,649 ISK each, to give them away. |

How would this prevent transfer notification spam?
It's not going to stop people from transferring a hundred ARs in batches of one, if that's what floats their boat.

I don't understand why you say it won't be something worth doing as far as trading in corp goes, we spent probably 3 hours trading yesterday and I have near 100 Viktor ' s and my friends have close to 300 ar's and everything else. I'd say it was worth doing.

Give. Like as in giving. There is an NPC Fedex agent rolling in gold right now, not small change mind you, rather that hefty 3k ISK per officer weapon money! Nay, in one instance, I paid 63,247 ISK to give 5 Beacon's swarm launchers to a friend. That is 12,649 ISK each, to give them away. The fee seems to be bugged. Just did a quick check and for 1 officer weapon on a few of them is 3,794 ISK while a few of them are a bit cheaper. Haven't come across any that were higher but I didn't look at them all and I also haven't looked at it in bulk; however I believe it's likely to give different results to different people. Going to take a few pictures and post it in the bug section if I can find some batteries for my camera.
I got a lot of stuff you want and could just have if it weren't for the trade tax.

jealous? I'm in NPC corp ( for ages)I roll solo , in standard and advanced suits, with a big bank roll of isk ..and plenty of officer weapons. I don't care about what your corp is doing, maybe read what I wrote a little better and understand the real point I was getting at??? |

sounds pointless charging people to give things away, the money goes nowhere, it's defunct, this isn't real life, these aren't real fees why even implement them when someone wants to give something away how ******* pointless is that? Honestly what a waste of time. |

Honestly what a waste of time. Most small in-game currency fees in other MMOs are in place to prevent spamming something. Imagine if you and some friends got together to spam 1 militia AR item transfers to one player. For all we know it could cause them to lag or get kicked from the match. Having an ISK fee deters that kind of behavior.
Also, it is an ISK sink.

I won't trade them or give them away...as a pilot why in heck would I ever want to see them on the field. OP EZ-mode joke of a weapon to help no-talent groundlings feel better about themselves.
Instead, I use them as umbrella holders.
