It's fun to see all of my competition commenting in this thread.
I will say if you put effort into it, you can make 500m to 1b a day, but you are looking at less than 10k profit margin with perfect skills and high standing on most of the items.
spreadsheets and the mouse scroll wheel are your friends. |

You always thought I disagreed with everything you said, that was never the case 
Only when there was something fundamentally conflicting with my believe and experience, did I disagree.
There was a time I just hated churning out the same answer to your re-worded same questions. Either way, we both know where each other stands on a lot of things.  |

I was kidding. I was just vaguely amused that the first time I saw you post on MD for over a year was agreeing with me about something. Good to see you're still around. Just ... let's try not to discuss anything we don't agree on

Make sure you use the entire price of the item and break down each component into their worth. I'll use that 1600mm plate as an example. Lets assume you pay the "Market Price" (At the top of the page) of 923,293 ISK Each of the minerals it breaks down into also has a market price. Your first step is to work out it's price according the market price of the minerals. - Which according to Chrukers is - 940,177 ISK. So you could melt it down, and sell the minerals and make a 16,884 ISK profit. First of all, thanks for the response. I was already asking in the Eve-Uni Chat and googling for a recycling output database but haven't found anything with a somewhat complete set of data. The ISK values don't seem up to date, but there are plenty of other sources for that.
I'm selling the minerals as I don't have too many market order slots available and my skill training/attributes/implants are aimed in a different direction. I'm not sure yet if the added amount of work for selling minerals with sell orders is worth the effort or if I should stick to selling directly to buyers. Only one way to find out.
Now I'll have to input the recycling data for all the items that are of interest to me, create a formula that compares prices while considering waste and taxes, learn how to import Eve-central prices and then think of the best areas and ranges for my buy orders. Sounds like a piece of cake. |

Check the spread between buy and sell. If it is very narrow, then the fees and taxes may be more expensive than the spread. If you think a market will go up, you can sell above current sell orders.
If you have a use for that money, that will return more than waiting on the market to reach your hopeful sell price, then invest the money into the other venture.
If the money is just going to sit around in your wallet and do nothing, then by all means use sell orders and sell at what you hope will be the sell price in a reasonable time frame. |

You can check the difference wrt minerals by checking the "Simple" sell price, this is direct to a buy order, and then setting the advanced screen, and entering the price.
if its not much difference, then the effort is not usually worth it |

If someone is updating his BOs regularly in comparatively huge increments (1-10k ISK each, multiple times a day over the past few days), is that a sign of someone trying to manipulate the market longterm in some kind of way?
If so, what might that person be trying to achieve with higher BO prices? Getting rid of a stockpile for a higher price?
People seem really eager to trump the overpriced BOs without much thought. |
