My Honest Experience Buying the Scythe LTI Original Concept from Starlti

Okay so let me start this off by saying I have been part of the Star Citizen community for a while now not some OG backer but long enough to know how tricky and honestly shady it can be to hunt down legit LTI ships or rare concept models. If you have ever gone down that rabbit hole looking for an original concept ship you know exactly what I mean endless sketchy resale sites overpriced listings and sellers that feel questionable at best.
That is why I wanted to share my experience grabbing the Scythe LTI Original Concept from Starlti mainly because I was skeptical at first but it actually turned out way better than expected.

The Hunt for the Scythe

I have always had a soft spot for Vanduul ships. There is just something about the Scythe the aggressive alien design and sleek edges that makes it stand out from everything else in Star Citizen. But trying to get your hands on an original concept Scythe with LTI is a whole different game. Most of what I found was either insanely overpriced or had vague sketchy details and half the time you cannot even be sure if it is legit.
I kept seeing people mention Starlti in random threads and Reddit posts so I figured I would at least check them out.

First Impressions of Starlti

Normally I am super cautious with third party Star Citizen ship sites especially for high value LTI ships or rare skins. But Starlti actually felt surprisingly professional. The site is clean easy to navigate and everything is laid out clearly. You get proper details like melt value LTI status and a full breakdown of the transfer process which honestly is rare to see upfront.
What I really liked was how clearly they explain the original concept part. If you are into Star Citizen you already know original concept ships carry more value and are usually cleaner to trade or hold onto long term compared to CCU chains or weird upgrades slapped together.
The Scythe I found had LTI full original concept status and the price was actually reasonable compared to some of the listings floating around elsewhere.

The Buying Process

This is where I expected the usual headaches but honestly Starlti was smooth start to finish. Payment went through without issues they accept the usual major options and I got instant confirmation. Within a few hours they emailed me the transfer steps and everything lined up exactly like they promised.
Way more legit than a lot of the random resale experiences I have had before. No weird delays no sketchy communication and no last minute surprises.

Finally Owning the Scythe

Seeing the Scythe LTI Original Concept show up in my hangar felt unreal. I have seen plenty of Star Citizen skins and ships but there is something next level about owning a rare alien ship with full LTI that you know is the real deal.
Having Lifetime Insurance gives huge peace of mind if you are planning to hold onto ships long term or actually fly them without worrying about replacements down the line.
Flying the Scythe itself is exactly what you would expect from a Vanduul ship. It is fast aggressive sleek and honestly gets attention every time you pull up in game. Random players always ask where I managed to snag one especially with LTI.

Would I Use Starlti Again

I am not sponsored and I am definitely not someone who hypes up sites unless they deliver but real talk my Starlti review is solid. Clear listings fast process and they delivered the ship exactly as described.
If you are in the market for LTI ships rare skins or original concept ships and do not want to deal with the sketchy side of third party sellers they are worth keeping in your bookmarks.
Of course always do your research but based on my experience it was one of the smoothest ship buying processes I have gone through outside the official RSI store.

Final Thoughts

If you are debating picking up a Scythe LTI Original Concept or any rare ship in the Star Citizen universe I get it the resale market can be a gamble. But from my own experience with Starlti I can honestly say they are one of the few trustworthy options out there especially for collectors long term players or anyone serious about getting legit high quality ships.
And let us be honest owning a Scythe with full LTI is kind of the ultimate flex.
