QUICK THE SKY IS FALLING !!! I couldn't possibly be that organizations with several T2 BPOs are hitting some roadbumps in their war efforts and trying to find some quick liquidity, no, sir, that's impossible ! And nobody, I repeat, absolutely nobody finds the thought of "3 years to breakeven" to be a tad bit too long, so everybody wants to hold on to their T2 BPOs even if they could get 3 year's worth of profit effort-free right now ! [/sarcasm] _

Pfft. I find even 2 years to be a bit hard to stomach, let alone 5. I am curious how long until (or even if) prices will ever go down to more reasonable RoIs. I mean, seriously, 3 years is basically 2% per month with recapitalization, that's horribly low IMO. _

It's not exactly no effort at all though. You still have to buy the components, haul them to the factory (no point even trying to manufacture IN a trade hub) and then haul the product back to the market once per month. Plus, you'll probably want to manufacture in a POS to take full advantage of the BPO, which is even more work (hauling fuel on at least a weekly basis). Compared to that, lazily placing a few huge orders which you adjust once a week or even less often for next to no effort at all could probably get you a very similar monthly RoI.
Back on track though - there could be ONE reason people are trying to sell a bit more T2 BPOs right now than usual, namely the expected drop in datacore prices (thanks to increased RP gains for all R&D agents, combined with heavily reduced grind needs for better agent access). That would mean a drop in T2 prices, which would mean a reduction in T2 BPO profitability (so, even lower RoIs *or* a drop in T2 BPO prices - either way, owners are slightly more motivated to sell). _
