I've had moments much worse than that when I log in after a "long night".
"Why won't this stupid terminal just give me my ticket...geez"
"The one in town? Worked fine for me a minute ago."
"I've tried buying a ticket to Kadaara 5 times now and it doesn't work...I have to get my harvesters there"
*pause*
"You're at the shuttleport in town, right?"
"Yeah..."
"Our city SHUTTLEPORT on TATOOINE?"
*longer pause*
"Ima go throw up and go to sleep"
EDIT: I may not have lost a sweet SEA, but having such things brought up repeatedly costs so much more...trust me.
I would just look for a human 12 point smith to trade the gloves for equal stated clothing. Would probably be happy to make the trade.

that really sucks.
If I had a part of my suit with an equally high + to experimentation id swap you, unfurtunately my points are distributed allover my clothes 
Ill keep your thread on the boards bumped when I see it down as a small favour seeing theres not much else I can do.
hope you get it sorted

Wouldn't be the end of the world if you swapped for pants/shirt/shoes or the such. Maybe not as easy as say 3 pieces, but still...not the end of the world... It sure beats up on my 11 point suit that was all +1s and the toolkit.
Man that thing was a pain...took forever to get too.
On a side note...hope that the bit about raising 15m doesnt mean that you got that for 15 million... O_o I just bought a pair of +8 looted gloves on ahazi for 20 mil and it was pretty good considering recent auctions.

WS experimentation have been very hard to sell on farstar lately. a full suit didnt even get min bid of 15 mill during the 2 days the auction ran before the auctioneer decided to shut it down due to lag of interest.
Granted it was a pretty long auction 5 days or so, but WS experimentation seems very low atm

I wish I had picked some other server when I got this game....how was I to know that ahazi would become the credit duping, janta soloing capitol of the universe.

thanks for your support, this is crushing after 5 months of planning
i reckon my options are:
1. trade it for up to 3 tapes of +15 experimentation
2. sell it for 15m - andbuy a +10 tape
3. all cancel all my accounts and get my RL mates do the same and we can all move onto another game - i love swg but this is totally p155ing seriously, i cant wear the gloves cos there too big (nothing on the gloves suggests that i cannot wear them) so i can wear most gloves except cold weather gloves cos the devs are awesome!!!
options will be done in order

Bah...don't quit the game over this. In the grand scheme of things, this is only a minor setback. The resources are much more important than the 12 points. 
Really...after saving a couple months to get an ATST that was nerfed 2 days later, using 40k of the best chromium alum to ever spawn on ahazi (which would later sell for far above 100CPU if you could even find it) in advanced weapon scopes because I didn't even think to look at the resources for geo blasters, having multiple factories vanish without a trace with output hoppers full of components or stacks of good spawns in the inputs (never seeing them again because SOE in all it's wisdom doesn't record hopper contents), and so many other things, you just gotta roll with the punches man.
And I've looked at other games. I've even sent scouts into a few. This is still the best horse around...even if it does stop to hump a statue every couple days...

15m for a +16, thats damn good, thatd go for over 20mil on Intrepid easily.
