DO NOT OPEN BOXES TRYING TO GET SHIPS.
you will probably spend hundreds of dollars and get nothing.
instead buy master keys and sell them on the exchange.
soon you will have enough EC to buy the ship directly for a set price.
DO NOT GAMBLE with your money when you can buy the ship for a set price.

Yes, that was insanely lucky. But I also got each of the ships for ~54 keys apiece along with all the other goodies that came out of those boxes and enough lobi to be within spiting distance of the Vengeance to go with them.
Let me know when ships drop down under 350-million EC and how much you paid on top of that for the other stuff you wanted from this Lock Box like consoles, weapons, traits, and Doffs.
you jsut want them to sell keys...more ppl selling keys = key prizes will drop
me, once they drive keys down low enough.

Fascinating breakdown.
While mine does not go into that much detail, here is how I ran 700 keys...
I hit the Kelvin Connie within the first 100 boxes, probably within the first 60... I stopped on my FED toon at 100 boxes opened. My ROM toon opened 200 boxes, and the T'laru dropped somewhere in the 100-200 range... 200 boxes total for that too. My KDF toon... 400 boxes, NO SHIP.
Thankfully, I acquired enough Lobi to flip 3 Vengeances for the D4x, and I fully admit that I would likely be able to get that ship at a cheaper price later. Impatience is your enemy, in this lockbox game, LOL.
I did get all the ships, and I think I have enough to get ALL Lobi items/costumes without going completely broke... but, the market is flooded right now, so reselling things won't get you what you want... unless they are ships.
Just in case you're the former...Lockbox "gamblers" make profit opening boxes.
Anyway, if you plan on buying the JJ ships on the exchange this way but have difficulty with math, check the going rate for the ship and the going rate for keys, divide the ship rate by the key rate, round up and buy that many keys.
... I don't touch lockboxes at all, except for buying a couple lobi uniforms off the exchange ... none of the ships are worth the outrageous prices imho ... but if I DID decide to get a box ship, I'd rather drop the RNG and just sell keys until I can buy it, it's just easier that way and puts a clear price tag on the ship.
Keep it up!
More lockbox ships on the exchange will lower the price and allow me to snap them up with no effort.

In fact, you're right.
But here is other question: If everyones will stop buy boxes, dosen't soon will exchange shop epty?
So, everybody have think by him/herself.
Me, personally buy Master Key one by one or two month. And I trying lucky. Some good console, is good too. And ships? What if will be there someone. But not a ship, how I want. Take her or sell? No! I want have control about decision what I do, what I have, and what and what for I want. Thats it...

The people buying your keys from the exchange will open boxes, so this has no impact on supply.
this is bs, with the current prices of the ships, you need to spend at least 100 € in keys for 1 ship. you never win, only cryptic wins, your money. 100€ for a bunch of vertices, it is just insane. if you want to see awesome 3d models, you can take a look at Turbosquid or CGsociety. But even these models are too expensive.
I never found any lockboxships since Temporal Lockboxes. ( 2012 or 2013 ? )
Except for 2 Malons and one token for a T5 ship (today)
Any lockboxes beside infinity boxes are extremly bad in terms of finding decent items
Somehow those token dropped from infinity boxes are bugged
it can give you random items without you ever choose any.
even so infinity boxes are better for farming lobi and those new item tokens
However most lobi gears are extremly toxic after delta rising
the amount of dilithium you spent to upgrade is insane
because they are all high mark and rare
It is pretty much like those toxic finanical deratives
which the banks sell to their customers
and lead to the global financial crisis 2008
