Entropia News: Share System - Crystal Palace Space Station Shares

remembering reality it is

10% - ped charge to withdraw - fluctating exchange rate back to home currency - bank charge to convert currency.

7% if lucky - you can get that at nutmeg

 

"There are so many things yet to come" :D

I just tried webshop too... indeed it doesn't seem to stop me or tell me there is no stock. I didn't try going through with clicking buy or anything though.

It looks like 10k is the most you can enter in the webshop

If I go for 10k I get this:

Share purchase Error(72)
ACCOUNT DEPOSIT LIMIT REACHED
Your deposit request exceeds your 30 day account deposit limit. Please contact Entropia Universe Support to increase your deposit limit.

If I take it down to 10 shares (100 dollah) it takes me off to pay pal...

... to sell me what, just I don't know

 

There seems to be quite a bit more leeway here in Sweden. Was just helping an elderly couple navigate an online shop which does a lot of advertisement here and we discovered strange discrepancies between their extremely marked-down offer prices and the price listed upon checkout. Not the first time I'm seeing things which would bring a big hammer down on them if it were in Germany. We may be suffering from overregulation sometimes, but the level of protection is unmatched. People just got so used to cross borders online now that awareness of different or absent rules abroad has gone down. Buyer beware still applies as much as it did a generation ago.

 

It use same limit for depositing in EU for security reason.
Newcomers have to deposit 10 usd max and go through verification of bank and credit card by MA.
On start is set to max 300 usd /month but you can raise it on 30k or more by contacting support.
Problem are stil with boxes with random chance to win or not valuable ring or other items and depend of country or region legislature.

 

Do I really have to go into details after the Deeptoken fiasco ? After the Compet Scam ? Come on ! :'D

This is exactly the problem with Entropia since 2009...the PR-gags and lies are strong with this one again...the Rookies, that never heard about Entropia before, will always take it for granted...which is bad...very bad.

 

wow that is really really bad...

 

Do I really have to go into details after the Deeptoken fiasco ? After the Compet Scam ? Come on ! :'D

Up to you, don't mind really. Derptoken's was just a load of bollocks from the start, only dodgy thing I saw was the person who bought 12mil of them but didn't but did but didn't. Don't know about "internal reselling" of them. Compet again, dunno about who was reselling them. AFAIK they were both simply bad ideas.

How would we know if MA were buying their own stuff?

 

Let's try an exhaustive logical treatment of this, without emotions or prejudice.

Crystal Palace exists and is well established. So was Calypso when CLDs were issued. Arkadia Underground and Moon deeds were sold to fund new developments, and the team behind them delivered. So were Compet deeds but it was not delivered. Neither was Deeptoken. Stables got screwed soon after their sale. Hangars and Motherships got screwed on promises which were never implemented but some found ways of turning them into personal success anyway. Land plots are in an unclear situation, since many years before their implementation a voting system was announced to be connected with them but was not confirmed afterwards. Other possible uses for them than the current options are entirely speculative.

I see only two parameters here forming patterns throughout the above examples of Entropia history which may support an investment decision:
1. A product which is already delivered and well established
2. A team which has proven to deliver on its promises
These parameters or conditions are independent from each other and happen to occur if at all then mutually contrasting. Therefore it is either one or the other which will have to suffice in your individual decision making. Complaints from existing investors in these seem to be few. Where none of these conditions applies (e.g. Stables when they were new and not foreseeable what was to follow and kick them out of business), the risk is either high or incalculable. A precedent where both positives check out does not yet exist.

All of this then has to measure up against available real-world investments whose proceeds could simply be deposited into the game, if the goal was generating play money out of passive income. The same applies the other way around, i.e. if the goal was to withdraw a passive income from in-game investments. If the difference between this and doing both on the same side (generating and consuming, in-game or real-world) is unfavourable in your personal scenario, it is called opportunity cost. If the outlook of having to justify that is scary, either work on that or better forget everything.

What I will consider doing myself and what I may complain about in public are determined by the selfsame logic. If at least one condition checks out, there is a constructive approach.

 

Time to tell Paypal the items you paid for were not delivered/didn't meet sellers description and request a full refund.

Even for MA, that is "hella whack!"

 

Precisely what I was getting at. Except I'm more upbeat about the future since recently, there is a different air really. This will not convince those who were in too deep and got burned earlier, but there is nothing anyone can do about the past. A "serious" investment this cannot be, expecting it is just foolish from the start. This has got nothing to do with the particular company. It's a game, period. A simulation where one can learn a few things about real economy though, which is what makes it interesting. No less and no more.

I guess the webshop didn't properly handle the situation when they were sold out and wrongly accepted the payment at all. Sending it back manually would incur a fee on your side though, maybe they figured you would like that even less since you would have gotten nothing at all for the cost. If you let them know that you would have chosen otherwise there is probably a way to reverse the transaction. File a support ticket.

 

I will go off what the fan boys said on other forum... will take 140 k ped PER week TO MAKE 1 pec share dividend. As Messi said (A legend a good player worldwide) = ''good luck bois''

He said it all. Also just as coincidendence, Wasn't 1 pec a month the expected payment on Conpets :)

I HOPE (truthfully) you not invested your ''kids to send through College'' money on these deeds. Oh well. This foirum can survive long after MA are gone. 1 pec a month. for 10 ped. now I am not that good at maths......
