EDIT: I have not made any of these purchases with credits. All were made with USD.

I'm confused, as the title would imply (or directly declare...). I'm of the understanding that ships/packages over $1,000 are NOT gift-able. I have a multi-ship package over $1,000, and there is no gift button for it. I have a Javelin acquired during this latest batch of sales, and there is most certainly a gift button next to it, subsequently producing the typical gift screen asking for your password and the recipient's information.


So, here's the deal:
  1. Either the Javelin is, in fact, gift-able, or
  2. The Javelin is not gift-able, and I would receive an error upon clicking 'Gift', or
  3. I'm drunk, and don't know where I am

Please help unconfuse me.

Any item over $1,000 in value can not be gifted without customer service assistance.

Just to absolutely be clear, you do mean gift and not melt, right? I know for a fact you need CS assistance to melt, but I have no idea what the actual rule is on gifting $1,000+.

Assuming you do mean gift, that wouldn't explain why my Game Package ($1,000+, bought with USD) does not have a gift button at all, while my Javelin (also bought with 100% USD) does have a gift button. Weird bug with their website maybe?

I asked someone that has experience with this issue.
"Any ship or ship package that is $1,001 or higher cannot be gifted and needs CIG help to melt."
"The Idris-M, which was $1,000 even, can be gifted."

Awesome, thanks. That's strange that the gift button even appears at all. They should remove that. It could be item #1,023,676 on CIG's to do list!
