On a related note, never haul [[Pilot%27s_License_Extension#Plex|PLEX]]. This is an item which can be purchased with real life money and is an expensive in-game item, so it is a very tempting target for gankers.

There is absolutely no reason for you to need to haul PLEX if you are purchasing it for real money, because you do not have to redeem it straight away and you can redeem it in whichever station you are in. This means that you can buy PLEX, fly to [[Trade Hubs|Jita]] (or another trade hub) in a shuttle or any other cheap ship and redeem the PLEX there, and it will show up in your station hangar without you having to haul it.  If you purchase PLEX in-game for ISK then it will appear at the station you bought it in.  Again, hauling PLEX is very bad idea.  You never know who is scanning your cargo.  If you buy off of the market be sure it's at a station where you're satisfied the PLEX can remain for you.
