Greetings, GM Dagon here.
Please be aware that the price on station offices is dynamic and changes depending on the demand on the offices available in the station. The price is then updated automatically changed based on the demand every downtime. You can find this information and more in the EVElopedia article provided below,
http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Renting_offices
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the matter then please do not hesitate to contact us again.
Best Regards, GM Dagon CCP Customer Support | EVE Online | DUST 514

office slots are demand based, as the GM said
if you don't like it, rent elsewhere - or, perhaps, your one-man tax dodging corp doesn't need a bunch of offices? mine quotes from my posts at your peril, badposters

This is how it's always been and the GM gave you the correct explanation. It's there specifically so people can't afford to hoard those slots and ensures slots become available from time to time even in the most populated places. It's working as intended. |

Of course the OP believes that somebody at CCP decided to double the cost of his office slot, because somebody at CCP sits there all day adjusting office slot rates across 5100+ stations mine quotes from my posts at your peril, badposters

Yep, clearly there was no explanation in this explanation. The guy who was sitting next to me in the first nullsec round table who had obviously not had a shower since before boarding his flight to Iceland, you really stank. You know who you are. |

Kind of, but not really.
The problem is that the rent goes up 'a little' over time when nearly all the offices in a station are rented, and goes down 'a little' over time when there are a number of vacancies. If there's enough corps renting offices to make the rent go up, then there's not enough offices open to make it jump a huge amount all at once if they suddenly get rented. There's a finite jump it can make either way month-to-month, depending on what it was when you rented.
OP should have paid attention. If you don't need specific extra services, there's plenty of dirt-cheap office space available all over the galaxy with med bay, repair, and reprocess if OP simply wants hangar space for a small corp. |

No, the 100th player corp would pay very nearly as much as the one on autopay because you rent for a month at a time.
So to make the autpay guy pay 101 mill, you'd need to put in 1M + 2M + 3M + 4M... +99M + 100M
(Disclaimer: I don't think the rental price is calculated exactly that way, but you get the idea. It's not a viable attack.)

Well i did not mean intentionally to screw over a single corp, im just saying that if you pay a bill of 1 mil and all of eve moves in to the same station your next auto bill will be massive compared to the first!

I read the post as "Office guns go from 58mm to 90mm." And wondered what the ***** was. Highsec office rent should be increased x10 to slow down nobs getting pulled into taxslave scams.

Office prices rise 5% per day that all slots are filled, remain the same each day there is exactly one slot free, and drop by 0-5% if there are multiple free slots, on a linear scale from 0% at 1 office free to 5% at all offices vacated.
The result of this is that office prices rise very quickly, then take a long time to come back down to the same level. For reference, it takes ~15 days at full capacity for rental prices to double, whereas if there are only a couple slots free the price will drop by under half a percentage point per day. A full month with 2-3 free slots will only drop the rental price by around 10%. |

At least the OPs whine thread came up with some useful information, even though the OP is probably fitting in rage still and won't actually end up reading this.
