Why can't you believe it? Maybe on your server they're extremely rare sales and people hold onto the pearls. On Bloodfin there is usually a Premium for sale 1-2 a week, pre-CU of course(or is it?).

I agree, that was crazy. Lemi won big time on that one.
And the really crazy bit is that there's still no "cash sink" in the game to take some of these billions of credits out of circulation. Because of PVP, nobody likes to spend money on rare decor items....in fact there aren't any rare items anyway. The GCW is no longer funded with cash, but with guys AFKing FP all day, so no cash sink there. Come to think of it, there's no GCW to speak of on most servers anyway.
Won't be long before premiums start selling for 100m each, both because of their rarity and because people are getting richer and richer and devaluing the currency. I'd sure hate to be a new player right now...

I wouldn't pay that much even if I had that kind of money. They simply aren't worth it when you can farm "goods" or simply buy them for 1-2mil each and get nearly as good tunes out of them. Ask the people that HAVE purchased 20-30mil pearls and see if they are happy with their purchase, I would guess they aren'tonce they tune them and find they have many "good" pearls that actually have better tunes.

Last "Quality" pearl tuned:
84/84 -0.19 -5 fc
This tune has caused me to take that position that I will NEVER tune another saber componet ever again.
