More fun if you like shallow games with no depth.

But then all 8 of my characters will have a reward and I can trade with people on other galaxies and have 8 gifts for my character for each milestone. That would saturate the game with these items and dramatically decrease the value or 'uniqueness' of these items. (much like it did with Holocrons, Life Day gifts, anniversary paintings, etc, etc.) They wouldn't be much of a wonderful gift anymore. They would be commonplace.
Maybe it doesn't have to be that way, but it ought tobe that way.
Let's say at 3 months I get myself a selfpowered harvestor. If I wanted anotherat 6 months couldn't I find a 3 month vet on another server that really wants an x-wing Miniature. I could use my 6 month reward on his server give him the x-wing, and he could make his 3 month selfpowered harvestor on my server and give it to me.

It's tied to accounts. There can't be cross server trades done.
The For the Field items can only be chosen once per account. What this means is if you choose a "self-powered harvester" you will not be able to select another self-powered harvester again even after you get another Veteran Reward choice.The For the Home and For Fun items can be chosen as many times as you want though. We will be updating the Veteran Rewards page to make this clear.
I took this to mean that FtF cannot be cross-server traded as you can only get them on one server.... however the FtH and FF items seem to be able to be cross-server traded... that's the way I read it...
No. Ok, let me try again.
The veteran rewards are all account based. So for example, you get ONE and only ONE choice at 3 months for your entire account.
The note about For the Field items means if you use your 3 month choice to get a harvester when you 6 month milestone hits, you can't pick another harvester.
Make sense?
Yes you could do that.

Dude I have to much stuff.
A perfect example of why I feel it will be nearly impossible for people to even find someone willing to sell them a second one, nevermind enough for a full suit of armor. I dont think anyone would want to sell theirs I'm sure they would rather keep it to use, or save it untill they have somethign to use it on IE: mando helmet etc.
The hardest part for most will be deciding what to use it on. Best reward ever 
bravo devs!
