1) there is 12000 AUR worth right/gold monocle in NeX on Tranquility;
2) there is almost identical left/gold monocle on Singularity which probably will be implemented on Tranquility in 1.1 update (tomorrow?);
3) quote from dev blog:
Quote:we are going to be adding a number of items to the Nex store but at somewhat lower Aurum prices than we have in the past. Items will be available at 100, 300 and 500 AUR prices.
Does that mean left/gold monocle will cost 500AUR - 24 times less than right/gold monocle? |

What's the matter, OP, did we run out of things to whine and ***** about?
I am perfectly cool with the new NEX changes, when virtual accessories and clothes cost 70 euros, you know something is bullshit right there. Inappropriate signature, CCP Phantom. |

It's to keep as an extra. You know, for those embarrassing times when you get to the restaurant, and realize "I seem to have left my monocle in my other body." Not everyone thinks the same way you do. This doesn't automatically make them wrong. |

/runs off to make popcorn The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

The left/gold may become one of those rare officer drops and is only in NEX to make sure the model was working well. BUT, if it is one of the cheep ones. el, oh, el. |

If prices come much closer to 5-20$ for novelty items, I may be willing to spend more than I intend to for a monthly subscription. Micro transaction mind f****.

It will just give the righties another group of people to look down on - the lefties.
On an odd note, righties does not pass the spell check whereas lefties does. Elitism has already begun. |

So? You'll have the diferentiation between douche-bag monocles and idiot monocles after the patch.

The left monocle is actually a knock off of the real monocle hence the lower price. EVE wouldn't be a real simulation if you didn't have cheap knock off now would it; |

The classic "prototype" NEX items will still have it's high retail value. I don't think that it has been confirmed what items will hit the NEX store and loot drops, only the shirts for the LP shops were announced as far as I know. The post implied that the classic items will eventually go out of circulation giving the classic items a bit of value.
1 US penny =1.66 AUR at the 2500 AUR rate 1 US penny = 240601 ISK at 480m ISK for 19.95 USD 1 AUR =144,940 ISK
So the new items will retail new at 14m to 72m ISK which is competitive with current ISK prices for most items. The monocle being an exception, but I believe the classic monocle will still retain some value much like the red Executor (even though the classic Executor is available for a tenth of the cost) due to less in circulation.
I personally sold off about 1B ISK worth of apparel over the last couple of days in anticipation of minor price drops once the patch goes live. Even if the new items will be competitive in price I suspect people who are not collectors trading in their old clothes for the new stuff and the demand in general to be a bit lower for the legacy NEX items until they go out of production. |
