I've never used this particular shop but the price is the cheapest I've seen so far. Worth it for the saving on the GTC alone.

Has anyone confirmed it is a 60 day timecard 60 days of subscription time and exclusive extras I was under the understanding that the timecard was tied to a new accound and you got an improved shuttle ingame with it

Product Features

* 60 Day Game Time – Useable by both new and current players

* Instant War Access – Retail box buyers will receive an in-game certificate that will give them instant access to Factional Warfare, while other users have to spend considerable time earning the right to fight for the factions
* Career Guide – For the first in the history of EVE, CCP will offer players goals in the form of what career they want to pursue and the inside advice on how to get there. This might become the biggest thing in this box if this works well
* VIP Pass – Players are told how they can invite their friends and give them VIP Access to EVE Online in the form an extended trial and if the friend becomes a subscriber the player will get a 30 day free game time added to their account
* Special Edition Ship – Players will get an exclusive ship in-game. It is special type of a shuttle that is ideal to move things around due to much increased cargo space. This is the first time CCP has created an exclusive ship, so we believe our current player base will be very interested in this.



Thats a straight copy/paste from the description given. From that it seems anyone can use it.

It's a nice price, but their site looks a bit cheap to me - a quick Google search revealed the following (this Igor Flavio Cipolletta seems to run ShopTo.net from almost the exact same address): *clicky*

Nothing there about ripping customers off, but just something to be aware of if you are considering using them! :-)

Isn't that incorrect?

I read on the eve-o forums that to get the shuttle you have to redeem the 60-day GTC on a new account, so that's a bit different than what the description above implies. Guess we'll find out in a few days. I already pre-ordered the box set, and can't wait for it.

Thanks for picking that up Loon. As tight fisted as I am, I think it's maybe worth using somewhere a bit more reputable.

I was still in two minds myself...it's a third cheaper than elsewhere, but I forced myself to bite the bullet and go with somewhere I've used before... ;-)

Just following up on this as it's now released, but a guy on another forum who was refering to the above site said:

"Well, must admit I was pretty skeptical of that site that had the boxed set for £16.99, but 'lo and behold it arrived this morning.

Time to go off and order another copy or two, can never have too much gametime."


I still haven't ordered it but when I do it'll more than likely be from there.
