it takes about a month to research a BS original to me5+ right ? so inside that timeline the investors will get nothing (?)
or will you supply them with copies from
older better researched and avilable for
copying prints ?

@FZappa
Research wise there is no advantage to The BIG Deal over other partnership deals, or getting an original yourself.
The time to do research still has to be done - BIG can do a lot of things - But work magic with time we can not 
@Velios
Looking forward to it

It only takes 15 hours to make a 1 run copy, and I only get one a week.
Nice try but a P4nts deal, not quite a scam but close
Umm.. 15 hours per copy * 10 investors in a BP = 150 hours spent in lab copying each week to produce required copies.
24 hours in a day * 7 days a week = 168 hours.
IF the BP never sat idle while waiting for someone to wake up and put it back in the lab slot, they could technically squeeze one more copy out of the thing per week, but if they gave it to one partner then the other 9 would scream foul. Get real P4nts.

so i was right , after paying for the share
there IS 1 month (at least)of getting utterly nothing
for your cash . the return rate for your investment is thus much slower then noted in
your post , which should include this info .

No
Pretty far of actually
If you buy an original yourself, and you dont get a single BPc within "1 month (at least)" - You are doing something very very very wrong....
Please go check up on BP research times - you obviously dont have all the facts. I can recommend EVE-DB.
FYI each shareholder chose for themself how and when they want research done to their share, and when they want to have copies made.
Same as if they had an original themself

So if I got a share in an Apoc blueprint how long would I have to wait to get my first copy? 1 week?
After 1 week what would be the ME on it? Level 0?
This post is confusing me now... I assumed I would just pay the money, wait a week and get a BPC with a ME of 5 or higher because it says: "Each '1/10th share' of a BP you buy, means you'll get one 1 run BPc each week (ME levels will vary - goal is at least ME5).
" 
Am I right or are the posts above twisting my mind

Nemiyen,
Tornsoul will answer you soon with the exact ME level of the Apoc BP.
I am guessing that the Apoc BP is at least ME 3 by now and will be continually researched as the "lack" of demand of shares allows. Getting the ME to L5 is a priority; as it is with all shares.
Thank you for your interest.
Ramman out...

@Nemiyen
It wont be long before we will have to buy *another* Megathron original (or Scorpion - gonna be interesting to se which ones comes first), because of shareholder demand.
Please tell me how I can ensure that the 11th megathron shareholder get ME5 from day 1, from a freshly purchased Megathron original....
and the 12 and the 13th....
As with good cooking - it takes time to 'get just right', same with BP research
I've said it before, and I'll say it again:
"BIG can do a lot of things - But work magic with time we can not"
So No. You do not get ME5 right of the bat.
Impossible to do - we (and thus the shareholders) have to spend time researching the prints - just like everyone else.
The BIG Deal *is not* a shortcut to gain ME levels faster than otherwise
What it is, is:
- A way to get into the BS BP market alot sooner (less ISK) than if doing it on your own.
- A way of not having to look (and wait!) for partners. 'The clock starts ticking' as soon as the ISK hits my wallet!
- A way to have a trusted 'entity' (BIG) supervise the manufacturing and distribution of the prints

We at VentureCorp have been very happy with this deal. We signed up almost 6 weeks ago and are getting close to breaking even on the investment. Nice job TornSoul :)

should have enough for my 3rd share in a week or 2.
slowly working my way up to the original, and making plenty of isk along the way.
a great deal if you are looking to get an original, and make money from the copies along the way, instead of trying to save 1 bil isk, and get no rewards along the way...
either that - or look at it in the long run, after 2 months or so, when you have broken even, its an extra 10-15 mil in your pocket per week for nothing :)

Thank you for the kind words gentlemen.
Over the last week The BIG Deal has 'exploded'.
9 shares sold over the last week!
It seems more and more people are getting their eyes up for the benefits of The BIG Deal.
26 total shares sold.
13 lvl 2 Bship shares
13 lvl 1 Bship shares
And we've reached the 2B mark as well, in a frenzy of buying last night.
If anything, the succes (and yes I'm not afraid to call it a succes) of The BIG Deal, shows that co-operation *is* possible and mutual beneficial in this world of ours.
Thank you to all the shareholders for having confidence in BIG and The BIG Deal.

Did I say 'explode' in my last post..
'Going supernova' seems more appropriate.
3 more shares sold since that post...
For a total of 29 shares sold
13 lvl 2 Bship shares
16 lvl 1 Bship shares
It's truly BIG

Shares are still beeing sold at a breathtaking pace.
We even have one shareholder, who has already managed to buy 5 shares of an individual print.
It's going to be interesting to see if s/he will be the first to obtain their very own original

Wow...
The word that best describes my feelings the last days.
The BIG Deal is 'going crazy'.
Shares are selling as if theres no tomorrow...
38 shares sold
21 lvl 1 shares
17 lvl 2 shares
I dont know what 'triggered' it, but it's been a 'selling frenzy' the last 2 weeks or so.
For the first month and a half, it was a share every 2 days or so.
Now a days its 2-3-4 *every* day!
Thank you to all the shareholders for believing that The BIG Deal does work.
I truly hope you all manage to buy all 10 shares of your chosen prints!
Sofar the 'record' is 7
