Ahoooy all spacesailors!!
A quick Q, I have gotten the impressen that not many sell BPC to this products.
Is there any that do and want to paste it here in that case?
What kind?
Where?
In what scale? (no matter how big it will create a demand anyhow)
Hopefully haven't the rental fee scared away all people from this?
Make yourself seen.

Firstly, most T2 products require the training of some skills to produce them, eg. an assault frigate requires frigate construction lvl 5 amongst others.
Secondly, it would reduce profits on the actual modules to have others competing for sales. As a lot of corporations have invested heavily in buying the blueprint originals, it makes sense for them to limit their competition.

i believe that it takes longer to add a run to a t2 bpc than it takes to build an item
otherwise producers would just run bpcs and then produce from those, and some would find their way onto the market
you make a lot less money, so almost no one does it

There are several draw backs to BPCs.
1) The already stated cometition.
2) Factories are way cheaper than labs.
3) It takes longer per run in a copy than production.
4) Its a 3rd skill set, 1 to make, 1 to research, and the 3rd to copy, it's even another set for PE, but who does PE.
5) BPCs for T2 have consumables too, so you don't even avoid the collecting stuff part, or repairing tools part.
As a t2 bpo holder, I like it. As someone who would like to make more than 1 thing, I hate it.

Also for me the most important fact is that it takes much longer to copy my anathema print than it takes to make a ship. Add to this the 2 mill isk price tag on lab rental for 5 days, and the fact that consumables are needed. Then when the prints are made there is a limited market to consider as not everyone can make tech 2. Makes the job not worth while on a regular basis.
All in all it seems to me that ccp did a great job in reducing the print market when it comes to tech 2, and from what i understand this is exactly what they wanted to do.
I have to add that i am not completely against the idea of selling copies. If someone realy wants a copy of a mega beam 2 or anathema look me up. I will be happy to oblige at the right price.
