Character slots available October 5th!

We've solved some technical issues recently and we can now offer character slots for sale. (Something previously unavailable.)
So as of October 5th (Tuesday), character slots will be available for purchase in the marketplace.
Here's a couple quick facts to answer obvious questions:

1. Slots are pemanent. You pay for them once and they stay on your account forever.
2. You can purchase any number of character slots. There is no limit. You want 20, 30 or even a bajillion character slots? Go for it.

Regarding Station Access subscriptions:

1. Character slots sold are *in addition to* any slots you are getting by being an SA subscriber. (Example: If you had 12 slots available as an SC subscriber and you purchase two more slots in the marketplace, you'll now have 14 slots available.)
2. If you cancel your SA subscription, and then buy slots to replace the slots you were getting, your characters *will* still be present in those purchased slots (they won't get deleted during the swapover).

Character slots will be available in the in-game marketplace for 1000 SC each.

$10 for a character slot, a thing everyone has been wanting and praying for a very long time. That will add tons of issues for SOE in regards to storage/etc/whatever .. or so they have said so often when asked about getting more slots ..
And, yet a Cloak, with Featherfall, that might be used for 1 week before a person finds a new 'toy' is priced at $11?!
This is one of the reasons why I think you guys pull out random numbers out of a jar for this SC stuff!
Glad you added this as an option but for crying out loud! Someone get a clue as to what something in the Virtual Strip Mall should be worth and price EVERYTHING accordingly!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! (^_^)
This is a much, much cheaper price than I expected for this, and I for one will be buying these left and right! Finally! I can create new characters as I please without getting extra accounts and enjoy the same Veteran Rewards on them as my other, older characters! What a wonderful feature!
This is fantastic beyond words!

How lame! I prefer to earn my character slots in a dungeon!

Whoever was the mind behind this needs to get a promotion and a raise.
