Such concepts are obviously beyond you. I almost give in but I'll try again
Your bpo = In research
Competitors bpo = Copying and selling
Your bpo = costing ISK
Competitors bpo = earning ISK
Now yours comes out of research and you are both selling ALL of your production (safe assumption because of high demand)
Your bpo = sold for same or lower price (lol)
Competitors bpo = sold regardless
*Factor into this, while your bpo is in research all billion ISK is dead capital not generating a return.
*Who cares if you sell them in 1.5 or 3 days? If you sell out before your next batch is ready then job done.
I'm going to scratch my head and walk away from your complete inability to grasp the concept. "Well yeah, I research 3 to 5 times as long, sell for the same or cheaper and have billions not generating a return but I really do have business savvy!!1!!eleven!"
Its obvious you have no clue so I will try again...
Example:
I have 20 BPC's I need to sell
I put them on escrow, at the same time I put my BPO back into ME research.
Time passes...
I have 10 BPC's left to sell.
My BPO has come out of ME research and goes into Copy (again 20 copies)
More time passes....
Copy finished... I now have 20 more BPC's to sell and look I just sold the last of my fist 20.
Please show me where my wasted capital is located!
Two things: 1) You didnt read what I said - you wont sell your first 20 in the same time as you would research another 20, yo uwill sell them much faster than that, as will your ME15 competitors, because of the HUGE demand for BPC. Ergo, you will still sell out, every time, before you can make more, and your BPC production rate is equal to your competitors - i.e. you are not doing any better than him, week to week. He, however, started 6 weeks before you, in making BPC, even though you bought the BPO at the same time, so he's made more money. You capital was wasted for 6 weeks, because it was researching, and it wasnt going to pay off later, because the market will devour all BPC, FASTER than you can produce them, as long as you aren't peddling apoc or some **** with no profit margin.
