    This weekend only!

    Buy a Retaliator, get a new custom whistler tip for your engines! The ladies LOVE hearing the sound of your exhaust when it goes [ame="http://youtu.be/n79jSzKA0L8?t=50s"]WooWOOOOOOO[/ame]!

    Gladiator is on sale as well. This may look like a bloated beetle, but it's got punch. Especially when you apply the customized two fisted sucker punch applique to your Gladiator.

    But what brings all the boys to the yard is the Super Hornet. It's sexy. It's sleek. It asks the question, "Are you mad bro?" and then answers it with "Come at me!" Pick this up and I'll throw in some custom rims for your landing gear. Chicks love the bling.
     
  2. I suppose it really depends on what your preference is; "sale" is a relative term given you're paying more for a ship with LTI and perhaps not a good bundle, when some of the CDL are offering to exchange select ships you own or purchased with a limited insurance plan, for the same one with lifetime.

    If you are prepared to part with the extra dollars to support the game's continued development, however, then so be it.
     
  3. I wish people didn't have to pay more, but a bunch of players decided it would be fun to scalp players on ebay and such for LTI ships which are much higher valued then they even should be.

    CIG stated that half the support tickets they answer are in relation to players being frauded in this "grey market" and Chris Roberts is quoted in saying he wish he never introduced the LTI. Sadly we have to pay more so the Original and Vet backers get some benefit (cheaper prices), but hey won't matter after Tuesday :)

    If anyone's THAT bothered by it, then paypal the money to Khorne and have him buy it for you $15 cheaper..
     
  5. Nacht and Zib can also help if Khorne is busy.
     
  6. I'm not going to touch eBay when it comes to Star Citizen; special editions of games are bad enough and the site is a prime example of trading abuse.
     
  7. Edit: I'm a doofus.

  8. nacht will be cheaper since he is an origional origional backer
     
  9. I am not an OB. Just a veteran backer.

    Retaliator = $250
    Gladiator = $150
    Super Hornet = $165
    Weekend Warrior = $180

    I would be happy to help anyone out. Just keep in mind there is still a 24 hour wait period before something can be melted. So if you bought something today, I wouldn't be able to melt it until tomorrow. So don't wait if you are on the fence. Just send me a PM and I'll walk you through the process.
     
  10. DOH! Those are my prices as well. I wasn't logged in when I looked at the prices. lol

    Wow, even in the early morning, the new sale has generated over $250k
     
  12. I think we may crack 30mil before Sunday and I wonder if the Origin 890 jump will be put on sale Tuesday as a result.

    I have the same prices and if any one wants to use me to save a few bucks I don't mind. Just sent me a message on these forums and I can get back to you.
     
  14. REALLY? $15-25 discount? I never expected that :eek:
     
  15. I reread the commlink for this weekend's sale and it mentions a Super Hornet upgrade (from base Hornet) that includes LTI. I didn't see it directly on the pledge page, but the link in the commlink had it.

    I think everyone can click that. This is listed under my store at $70. This is meant for those that have the Colonel package, the one with the physical goods.

    Edit:
    Here's the non-LTI upgrade.

  16. It's not necessarily a discount. These were the original prices. There is just a markup for newer backers to get LTI. There is still the whole weekend and I can help anyone get them at these prices. Just send me the total amount in other ships/skins and I'll purchase it at these prices and gift it back. Just remember the 24 hour wait period before I can melt the items.

    Super hornet was, others are still there, and you can pick up the SH chassis in game if that's what you really want..
