I dont think its wrong. It happens every day. Its the same thing as first class on airlines. Or how may services have you seen that have the "Premium" or "Golden" package?
I think if you're paying more money you deserve better service, and wait time is definetly an aspect of the service that people pay attention to.
Personally i look for whom ever has the highest buffs. I'll wait a little longer for higher buffs. The second factor in my decision is wait time. I'll sacrafice a couple hundred points on a buff if there's only 3 people in line instead of 20.
I dont think "fair" really has a place in the business market. Ethics definetly have a place, but "fair" is different based on opinion and has more to do with emotions than principle. Thats kind of the difference between capitolism and communism. SWG is obviously not a communistic society so you cant complain about who's being fair and who's not. Capitolism has its own way of weeding out bad service. If people dont like the service thats being provided then they dont use it. The only time this doesnt work is when there's a monopoly, but nobody in SWG has a monopily on buffing.
I say VIP lines are fine. Call it VIP, Premium, Golden...whatever you want. It's not unethical to give your higher paying customes additional perks.

Baleorg please take a spelling and typing course! My head hurts from trying to read your posts.
I personally don't use VIP lines just because I do not buff for money or to be nice, I only buff to max out my Med XP to convert to FS XP, which only takes 10 full buffs or so. I do not disagree with it in anyway. My feeling is do what you want its your buff line. Charge what you want, hell make your customers do the chicken dance before they get their buff. Just don't be surprised when you lose customers because they don't want to deal with your requirements.

I dont agree with VIP queues, we get enough grief as it is without giving people cause.
