This is a way of ccp seeding the market so that PI gets a soft start. As compared to people screaming that there aren't any pos, pos guns on the market, fuel or other issues. It also has the effect of removing a lot of isk from the game at the same time.
I also hear wet mainframes are in need of a cold shower.

We are not talking about the existence of NPC sell orders for stuff, but about the IMBALANCES in reprocessing yields of various POS structures.
It's not just as if they kept NPC sell orders up a while longer, it's as if they radically LOWERED the NPC sell order value.
So, no, that's not a soft start for PI, it's the kick in the balls before even having any balls in the first place, ensuring that no balls grow any time soon.
You seem rather angry about this. I do recall chasing after your alt's pod in 0.0 a long time ago during the first delve invasion. You stated that you make most of your profits around patch time, are you sure that you don't have a vested interest here?
On the flip side the "cheap" modules are going to be very expensive after the patch due to their construction requirements.

I understand completely. However, you did request that PI be delayed and this is the result. :ccp:
Time to run this into the ground.

Some of the modules involved may or may not require rebalancing with respect to their build requirements. Unless, of course, they are intended to become more expensive after the next patch. This could be intended either way.
On the flip side it has generated a lot of interest in PI. Now that I have the spreadsheets for this I'm marginally interested in PI whereas previously I didn't care.
The design of PI has some depth and the production process should help PI products retain value in a robust manner (despite the current influx of P4 products). Though there are probably a few people geared up to milk the system right after the patch who have been nerfed by this.
That and the tears are fantastic.

On the up side; demand for couriers has probably gone up.

From The Forge numbers there could be enough products to produce roughly 15,000 large pos. In rough terms minus the cap parts.

That's a lot of fear mongering for one post. How many freighter loads have you sent to jita?
e: post got paged. I'm looking at you Grozen.

As I'm not at home with my spreadsheets my estimate that the current PI products would last around two months for all pos and pos module demand, excluding fuel requirements.
CCP are getting a massive isk sink out of this.
Despite the repro there are certain products that will experience shortages soon after the patch.
There is also a manufacturing bottleneck due to a 1b isk bpo that producers will end up purchasing.
Should be a lot of fun with the market volitility even if CCP do not remove the npc orders prior to the patch.

Don't forget that this is being run into the ground and those not able to make use of the products will panic and try to dump products. Then they'll realise they should have retained them, and so on.
Yes, my estimates are for only that point in time. However, my forecast for tears is many.

That's great news Akita. I look forward to this issue being addressed by 2014.

There is a mistake in your bug report as well. PI is not threatened by reprocessing. Only the supply via npc orders.
Now if only we could build ships with PI goods and insurance fraud them.

It was fun pulling down the price of p4 materials last night. Only had a bit over 200 units to reprocess this morning and then dump the trit.
