So I go to buy a UVT and I notice the prices have changed but it appears to be only for a few chars not everyone. Some of my other corp mates have been able to buy them for 10 AUR. The price my market is showing is 1000 AUR for the 30-day. Anyone else seeing this? |

Yea. The UVT prices changed. I saw them for my alt at 10 AUR for the 30 day, and then this one got on and they were 1000 AUR for the 30 day. CCP, were you planning on letting us know about this??? |

Well I was planning to buy some AUR to get the UVTs but if they have gone up to 1000 for a 30 day I wont be buying any AUR at all and will never spend any money on this game....I dont mind if they go up in price but that is too high. |

Wrong - they decide the prices. Any provider of services can do this with no notice. Your argument holds no water.
False advertising would be if you saw 10 Aurum, and they deducted 1000. In this case, you can see the price is 1000 before you buy. |

I feel a bit ripped off because at the same moment my corp mates and I were looking at the market and the prices are different. 10 for them. 1000 for me... Not fair! This was a few hours ago however. I would think CCP would fix this bug quick, considering it affects their profits. Anyone still seeing the 10 AUR price? Because if you are, BUY A WARBARGE LOAD OF THOSE THINGS. |

They were always supposed to be a higher price. They only had them priced at 10 AURUM for testing purposes. Did you really think they would keep them at 10 AURUM for each duration? Doesn't really make much sense. |

Doesn't really make much sense. i would say that a 100AUM would be fair mid ground maybe 500+ but 1000 is a bit high then again it not like that 60 dollor monocle on the eve market place some time ago. |

I like communication, and it's even better when it is free and not something I have to pay for. 10 aurum is a good price because of how I only have to buy aurum once and be able to use UVTs for most likely the rest of the game's life.
But if I am restricted to being able to do the one thing I enjoy most about dust, which is player interaction, I might as well find another communication method or just stop playing. Sure you might tell me that 1k aurum is only $0.50, but that still means I have to buy an aurum package, which tempts me to use that aurum for something other than a UVT, and just.....ugh. |

In this case, you can see the price is 1000 before you buy.
your example is exactly what is happening. People are seeing 10 Aurum, checking out, and then retroactively having the other 990 Aurum removed from their account without notice. So, for example, last build the first thing I did was buy 50 uvt so I wouldn't have to worry about it, which cost me 500 AUR. If someone did the same today, they would have expected to be spending 25-ó on UVTs, but charged $25. Yeah, $25 gone, without notice for an item that you were told you were paying 25-ó for.
Imagine you went to the store and bought a small piece of candy for 25-ó with your debit card, and then get home and check your bank balance and see you were charged $25.
in regards to the new price: 50-ó a month for full group voice chat with no ads isn't bad really. |

I'm not sure I'll be buying any, since I didn't seem to be using them much before anyway. But if I had a reason to buy them, I don't think 50 cents a month is too much at all. |

He bought them and then they changed the price, and deducted his aurum accordingly. Are you saying that a store has the right to demand money from me if I bought something in a sale that's no longer running? |

Well it works out to be about ~50 cents, really not bad considering it lasts an entire month. I was originally opposed to it, but looking at the bigger picture it really isn't that bad.
Plus it's likely we all would have bought UVT's anyway so we could use voice in a non-corp chat room. |

wait am I understanding this right? Those of us who bought a bunch at 10 AUR yesterday are having 990 per unit effectively STOLEN from our accounts? I'll need to check that because if thats true then its bullshit. I planned to spend a dollar on my UVTs not $100.
I might be willing to buy UVT at the current prices if need be AND its worth the cost now that almost everyone doesn't them. I wouldn't have ever bought the 200 of them... well I guess I'm off to log in and see if my AUR wallet magically emptied! |
