when you can buy assault ships now for less than a single module that has been out way longer, you know somethin is very wrong  .. but like somebody said above, aslong as people keep buying them for that price, they are gonna keep selling them for that price .. and like somebody else said they do, i too spend hours npc hunting for the rare named rechargers instead of buying the tech 2 platinum plated diamond studded ones .. what they arent platinum plated and diamond studded?

LOL my agent gave me 100k of superconductors as a reward the other day. Would be nice if agents occaisoally handed out tech2 items.

Going by drops on the BoB killboard, the entities who would appear to be using the most T2 cap rechargers are FA and CA.
Every T2 Cap Recharger I have ever owned (or have dropped to enemy fire) I got off a CA or other enemy ship that I destroyed.
All the ones I know of inside Fountain were purchased in empire or picked up off enemy ships.
FA does not have a T2 Cap Recharger BPO that I know of, and it would be surprising if there was a "secret" one that I did not know about.

simple...
Go to war with whomever holds the most BPOs. Cut off their supplies and make their corp assets sit in hangers and rot. Find insiders to tell you where each and every station they have is located then make them pay for making you pay. Kill their ships and they will need money to replace... making them look to their cash cow... and then let supply vs demand take over and watch prices fall.

1) If the price is too high, don't buy it ! even if you earn 30 Mil Isk/day, do not pay a price that newcomers to EVE won't be able to pay before monthes
2) Monopolies of tech 2 BPO with no release of BPC freezes the entire market then the gameplay because they slow the arrival of new technologies (when will we see Tech 3 stuff ?)
3) Lack of Tech 2 BPC nerves the tech 2 component market and by the way all the starbases economy
4) If I own someday an interesting tech 2 BPO, I will sell affordable copies of it, and affordable mods because I'm wealthy enough, I do not care of selling this BPO for even 50 Bil Isk, the fun would just be to change the face of the game by making everybody look for tech 2 components in example. Does someone think in the same way ?

If it was a free market then you would be right. But if it was a free market, the high price of the module would cause others to enter the market, reguardless of the entry cost, and begin production, causing prices to balance out.
This is not a free market. This is a government sanctioned and mediated monopoly. The only reason that others cannot produce cap recharger IIs is a restrictive government philosophy on intellectual property which is artifically preventing entry into the market.
Its like paying $10 a gallon for gasoline beacuse the government decided any oil company not called Exxon was evil, and burned them to the ground. I dont think you'd be calling exxon savvy in that situation, and its little different from the Cap Recharger II market today.

Hats off.
The so-called player driven economy is a joke.
The whole lottery system is a joke.
Reverse engeneering is the way to go. Dunno if it exists in Eve, though.

O.K. I'm all for profitable manufacturing, but let's not fool ourselves by pretending that savvy has anything to do with it.
Someone, somewhere got *handed* a BPO for doing research. At best, it was blind luck. At worst, it was favoritism and/or tenure (if you believe the various conspiracy theories).
Don't change it, but don't pretend it's something it is not either.

In many countries, any accord between competing companies to fix an artificially high price is illegal.
If there is a price cartel, those who got the BPOs already got a HUGE profit from them, dozens or hundreds of times more than what they invested. Why should they get a higher still?
/me think that some more BPOs should be added randomly.

I like having money, but if I was to get a hold of this BPO I'd build them for 2-3 mill each.
Yeah, I wouldn't get as rich, but at least I wouldn't be regarded by most as a money grubbing loser.

Hmm,
There might be a cartel, but it would have to be an agreement between at least 4 different groups then that I know to have the bpo.
