As posted on the LL blog:
Due to ongoing investments in developing and maintaining the underlying technology of SecondLife, Linden Lab is increasing prices for new Private Island sales. Please note that this increase does not affect tier fees for Mainland land or existing Private Islands that you currently own.
After we run out of our existing inventory of approximately 150 regions, the cost of Private Island Set up will be US$1675.00 per region and monthly Maintenance fees per region will be US$295.00.
We have shut the land store down to give this information time to reach everyone. We are offering a limited amount of inventory at the old price when we reopen the land store at 1pm SL Time on November 1st. We will be shutting the Land Store down again to change the prices as soon as possible after we run out of Inventory. In the event orders for existing inventory are oversubscribed, Linden Lab will allocate availability by limiting orders per unique account.
Effective immediately all orders placed outside of the Land store (by phone or email) will be charged at the new price. No orders placed since the land store was taken down on Friday will be accepted. If you require special placement (next to another’s region) or other individual help, please contact the Concierge office AFTER you have placed the order through the Land Store. Orders that are currently in progress will receive the old price.
Prices on the mainland and for qualified educators and non-profits will remain unchanged at this time.
