Bargain Hunt...
What happens to the last guy that swaps you the 1 bill item?
 Originally by: Bargain Hunt
Through the process of many trades, over time the swap item gain in value. When the item reaches 1bn in value it will be sold, and the proceeds split between everyone that was involved in the swaps (me included).
Possibly one of the most stupid ideas I have come across. It has only 2 outcomes:
1-You get to the 1 Bill item then sell it and split the isk between only yourself or maybe the rest of the so-called 'players' - in which case you scammed the guy at the end.
2-You never get to the 1 Bill item because no-one is stupid enough to be the guy at the end. You either run off with the item you already have or maybe give it back if your a nice guy.
I have the feeling that your not a nice guy.

i can only come up with one of two reasons why you would be such a bumhole about a nice thing going on,
1, you have mistrust issues and therefore cannot commit into anything that requires having faith in other.
2, you simply do not own anything of the value to match the item currently on the list,
in any case if you stop and think for a sec, the item being swapped is slichtly cheaper than the item your giving up so your not risking much, also at the end we all know what the last item is and we all know roughly how much we are entitled to, so as this is a trial of this type of thing i suggest you either try it or leave it be and at the end youll know if its a scam coz we will all be sayng so. ok

I believe the whole idea is that the guy who gives up the 1b item gets the thing below is (probably worth 800-900mil) AND then also get a cut of the thing being sold...

Haha, comedy.
Anyway agree with the previous 2 posts. Yes thats right i would have to trade the last item, you can contract it for fool proof security, as has been the trend.
And yeah I hoped it would have taken off quicker, but ah well I shall persevere :)
Still have the Mael + in ma hanger.

Bump
You could sell the parts individually for more than the item you swap with.
Or something... put smartbombs on it and efficiently lower your sec status.

Ho, this is a great scam.
In then end, at the very least you'll have turned a 4isk trit form couple dozens of millions. Not bad. I'm surprised people actually play in it.
This swap thingy was tried and worked in real life. Guy started with a paper clip and ended up with a house. Why? Well, in the end, he got big corporate to actually turn him into advertisement.
Will it work here? I doubt.

Two more bumps, and if nobody is interested I'll sell and split. Unless anyone has objections to that...
(split being between swappers, not me legging it )
