Mova B	Posted - 2009.07.25 20:55:00 - [1] Edited by: Mova B on 25/07/2009 21:00:00 Originally by: Fartislartbast For all the number-crunchers out there, here's a couple of build-price comparisons: ME:30 Hulk v max-run BPC ME:20 Skiff v max-run BPC Material prices are based on the average prices of the top 100 sell orders at all 4 main hubs on 5th June 2009 There you have it. Hulk 50.8 M ISK build cost. Sell price is around 90-100 M ISK at most cases. Question is, can you beat Hulk BPO with 10 invention/manufacturing slots? EDIT: The BPO was sold with 100 B ISK, and it will take quite some time to start making profit with it...

EDIT: In OP, there is links to his calculations.

Taua Roqa Minmatar Planet Roqa	Posted - 2009.07.26 06:51:00 - [11] it's just NOT fair, why SHOULD i *MINE* veld ALL day LONG when a T2BPO owner can MAKE INSANE profits?!! CCP should remove t2BPOS!!!
Alex555	Posted - 2009.07.26 07:07:00 - [12] hulk bpo is a thing to have :) no doubts here but talking about making profit with it is a silly thing one is eager to pay 100 bln isk (crazy amount really)! i dont think that a person who is ready to pay so much is thinking about making profits. he is already making it :) for me it was always a big fun to read threads where the profitability of hulk bpo was discussed :) it is not for profit, though u can make one, it is for the sake of owing one :)

And then my first MMOs. But now, after a decade, I can't feel the "epic feeling" for having the specific game "gasm items" any more and thus I work more on the meta-gaming side.

Mova B	Posted - 2009.07.26 16:58:00 - [16] Still I haven't got answer to my original question.. Will 10 invention/manufacturing runs beat single ME30 Hulk BPO?

Claire Voyant	Posted - 2009.07.26 18:05:00 - [18] Originally by: Breaker77 Originally by: Mova B Still I haven't got answer to my original question.. Will 10 invention/manufacturing runs beat single ME30 Hulk BPO? Yes, especially if you use the right decryptors. That is not really the issue. If hulk prices stay fixed and you can invent enough BPCs to make more profit than a hulk BPO then yes, but eventually the increased supply will drive down prices to the point that it is barely profitable to invent. Hulk BPO owners have a 23 million isk advantage over inventors plus the cost of invention (if the numbers in the OP link are correct and they stay fairly steady) which translates into an additional 25-30M per day in profits not available to inventors. (Remember there is nothing stopping a BPO owner from inventing also, although they would probably invent something else so they don't end up killing their own profits.) A return of less than 1% per month does seem pretty lousy, but it is their money and there are some people that believe that they will be always able to sell it at a decent profit. However, I sold my tech2 BPOs years ago and invested in businesses with a better growth potential and I'm not complaining.

That was just a sop to quiet the masses of players who don't work for nul sec corps which CCP has been propping up since this failed nul sec fiasco started. Anyone remember solo gatecamps? Anyone remember being able to go into nul sec without having to grease the palms of corp vandals?
Breaker77 Gallente Reclamation Industries New Eden Research	Posted - 2009.07.26 19:21:00 - [20] Originally by: Claire Voyant but eventually the increased supply will drive down prices to the point that it is barely profitable to invent. Thats the one things goons are good for, increasing demand.

Alex555	Posted - 2009.07.26 19:38:00 - [22] can any1 give me a link to an auction please? wanna see how it was
Jovialmadness	Posted - 2009.07.26 20:21:00 - [23] it is an isk printing machine. aren't you mad you dont have one? Quote: As a side note, i liken capacitor to blood.

cosmoray Cosmoray Construction	Posted - 2009.07.26 20:24:00 - [24] It really used to be when Hulks were 500M a pop. Producing 10 a week at 450M profit, for 4.5B per week profit.

Remember when at the Average peak server load was less than 1 person per 2-3 star systems. today when I loged in it was (including W space) greater than 6 per star system, and when the expansion hits it will probably be hovering somewhere between 8-12 per. Hell if it was not T2 you would be whineplaying about how the mega aliance fleets of Super caps have locked you out of Nosec. **. . . . . . . .**[/i] Stop freaking worrying about why things the developerd did 5 years and more ago no longer make sence.

Producing 10 a week at 450M profit, for 4.5B per week profit. i'd have thought that surely the materials also were very high cost to make them or something....450m profit per is sick lol

It used to be the finite number of BPOs; there were not enough (active) BPOs to use all the moon minerals being produced, therefore the BPOs were the production bottleneck and the BPO owners got most of the profit. Now with invention, moon mins are the bottleneck, therefore the moon owners get most of the profit.
Venkul Mul Gallente	Posted - 2009.07.27 12:03:00 - [29] Originally by: Mova B Still I haven't got answer to my original question.. Will 10 invention/manufacturing runs beat single ME30 Hulk BPO? Simple: 1) Take 100 billions 2) buy R&D alts 3) buy GTC for the R&D alts 4) produce 100 hulks day The key point is having the 100 billions to start with.
Hieronimus Rex Minmatar Infinitus Sapientia	Posted - 2009.07.31 08:35:00 - [30] I think you make like 30mil a day so around 900mil a month, a little under 1%. Pretty terrible IMO.
