    So, I bought two R&D boxes from the C-Store with my free stipend of Zen. I was lucky enough to be reward the Elachi Sheshar Dreadnought Cruiser. I before I realized that I had it, I was flooded with people offering to buy the ship. I have no idea about this ship and plan on looking up review videos before I make my decision.

    What are your thoughts on this ship? Should I sell it for 300+ million EC or keep it?

    300+ million EC?! eek!

    If I had it, I would sell it.

    It's a nice ship, but I don't think it's 300+ million EC nice.

    Alternatively, you can sit on it for a few months and sell it for a good deal more.

    On the one hand, demand is highest around now, on the other hand, supply will go up during the event and then trend to nothing later. Either way, sell it at some point and be space rich .

    Well, I decided to keep it. I wouldn't pay 300+ mil EC for it, but it is good for getting lucky on two R&D pack purchases.
