Loxbourne posted:Wasn't there a Concierge-only card at some point? I remember the uproar when CIG cack-handedly had it shipped directly to their rich backers who duly got customs declarations saying the card was worth exactly $1 apiece. I know there was a card you could explicitly buy, and I recall there being a concierge card. Maybe it was when you reached concierge level you had the option to buy the card. Was concierge $1,000, or $10,000? I know StreetRoller was well under $10g, but he did order and receive a card. Was $10g just for the special in game club, or something? I know there was something at $1g, and something else at $10g, but so much has happened with this project it's hard to remember.

Yeah there was a metal-ish silver card I got with the Rear Admiral package from KS days. Had my call sign on it and some other crap. Can't be arsed to find it at the moment. When I got my refund they didn't mention it or deduct from the amount they sent back. So I guess I scammed CIG. Take that CR!!

If you still have the packaging it came in, the value of the card is listed as $1.  Quite a return on investment there

I remember working up the value of actual metal cards, which I think were originally heavily implied (or explicitly promised, who loving remembers), and it was something like $0.20 a piece. I'm pretty sure anyone only got plastic cards. Metal cards are dumb, due to bending and what not, but I'm pretty sure I remember metal cards being a thing for at least the higher end buyers.

I think I remember they did a thing where you could upgrade the plastic card to a metal one, for a nominal charge of course, but it didn't run for very long

Even though I don't remember it clearly, the metal card thing must've happened, otherwise I wouldn't have the memory of looking up the prices of having metal cards made.

There are ways to get back transfers made to insiders that leave a company insolvent. It can be tough, but it's possible.

And the backers that have mere hundreds sunk into this mess won't have the drive or resources to chase that money. Maybe some of the whales might but they'll have to get in line behind any shadow investors that get the biggest cuts from liquidated Restoration Hardware furniture and any cash that can be squeezed from the executives.
