Game time can be bought either from CCP directly, or from an [https://secure.eveonline.com/etc.aspx authorised third-party retailer]. It can be paid as either a recurring payment, or by buying a "block" of game time (e.g. 6 months) in advance, which is usually cheaper on a per-month basis. Depending on your local currency it may be worth shopping around to get the best deal on game time. | Game time can be bought either from CCP directly, or from an [https://secure.eveonline.com/etc.aspx authorised third-party retailer].

You should '''NEVER''' haul PLEX, as every [[Suicide Ganking|suicide ganker]] in New Eden will be trying to destroy your ship in the hope that they can retrieve the PLEX from your ship's wreck (like any other item, there is a 50% chance that the PLEX will be destroyed when your ship is blown up). You should never need to haul PLEX - only buy, sell, or redeem it at [[Trade Hubs|trade hubs]], and if necessary you can use it to add game time (or any of its other uses) remotely from anywhere in the universe through the [[Managing_Your_Assets#The_Asset_Window|Assets window]]. | You should '''NEVER''' haul PLEX, as every [[Suicide Ganking|suicide ganker]] in New Eden will be trying to destroy your ship in the hope that they can retrieve the PLEX from your ship's wreck (like any other item, there is a 50% chance that the PLEX will be destroyed when your ship is blown up).

Additionally, since PLEX is both valuable and fairly commonly used (compared with other items of comparable value), it is often used in [[Scams_in_EVE_Online#Contract_Scams|contract scams]]. If you want to be safe only buy PLEX from the [[trading|market]], or be extra-careful when reading the terms for contracts involving PLEX (note that the vast majority of contracts involving PLEX, especially those advertised in the Local chat window, are scams). | Additionally, since PLEX is both valuable and fairly commonly used (compared with other items of comparable value), it is often used in [[Scams_in_EVE_Online#Contract_Scams|contract scams]].
