They exist.
They've existed for a long time.
CCP admitted that the lottery was one of their biggest mistakes.
No more will be seeded.
Removing them will hurt Eve more than help it.
You can get one the same way most BPO owners got theirs.
The handful of players that got theirs in the lottery could (Should?) have sold a LONG time ago and made far more trading with their windfall. |

The market is fair for everyone. Gather several (or several hundred) of your closest friends, pool your cash, and buy a BPO.
Just like the major alliances did during the lottery. Just like they continue to do today.

Not one bit.
I was part of an industrial alliance during and shortly after the lottery. Those BPOs were not something that individual players bought for their own personal use. They were corp assets paid for with corp funds, and their profits funded the corperation's expansion.
Today, you can get them for prices that individual players can actually pay (granted, reasonably wealthy players).
Earlier today, there were 15 T2 BPOs on the 1st 4 pages of the WTS forum, and not trash ones either. |

It would be that way only if those T1 BPOs without the trit reqs cost ten or a hundred thousand times what it cost to simply use the normal BPOs.
The Light Neutron Blaster II auction running right now is at 10b isk. I could toss my bid on that auction, or I can keep paying ~4,500isk/run to invent them. Considering that the market prices for that module are currently 120% over my cost after invention, I'll keep inventing.

If you get a 10 run copy how is invention costing you 45,000?
You got me there. It is 45,000 per run not 4,500.
