Ichabod Dirange Iscariot Enterprises	Posted - 2006.08.13 14:49:00 - [14] I once bought some 400+ small tractor beam BPOs thinking it to be the same handout as POS control towers were. It was a calculated risk but I'd be damned if I was going to get left out of the instant riches once more.
Lorth Body Count Inc. Mercenary Coalition	Posted - 2006.08.13 16:00:00 - [15] I once sold a stack of 6 Arb siege launchers for 40 million. Back when just one of those things was worth that much. I also almost bought an armor hardener for 111 million, a long time ago when the market interface had just changed. Luckly I didnt have that much, but I tried to buy it twice.
Pelsson Amarr Northern Intelligence SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2006.08.13 16:43:00 - [16] Edited by: Pelsson on 13/08/2006 16:43:22 I were putting my raven on market few weeks ago for 100m, but typed to many zeros so it went on market for 100 billions 1.47 Bills. lost to market broker fee

Rik Oshay	Posted - 2006.08.13 19:23:00 - [21] put name of recipient in the description area and gave away a Centus 1260 hp armor repper i had just bought for 650 mill (Last week)
Genghis Kahn Evolution	Posted - 2006.08.13 19:29:00 - [22] Back in the early days everyone knew the piece of tritanium that was sold for 100 million ISK.
Aeaus Tharsis Security	Posted - 2006.08.13 19:33:00 - [23] I was planning on setting up a 0.0 complex reaction (nanofibers actually) a few months ago. I decided not to the day before the control tower prices rose. I could have made over a billion dollars in profit simply selling those towers back and forgetting the reaction. Still mad at myself for not reading the patch notes back then. My Guides
The Enslaver Shinra Lotka Volterra	Posted - 2006.08.13 19:36:00 - [24] I accidentally sold like 7 manticores for 15k each. I always double check the number of 0's now. --------

Plutoinum German Cyberdome Corp Veritas Immortalis	Posted - 2006.08.13 22:26:00 - [26] Edited by: Plutoinum on 13/08/2006 22:26:27 Remember only a little mistake that cost me money: A few months ago I bought some True Sansha Smartbombs for 150mil isk each to resell them, when I had an old high price in mind. Once they were extremly expensive, so I was really confident that I made a great deal. In the end I really had trouble to sell them again and made a loss. Biggest 'almost desaster': I almost sold my fenrir freighter for 1.05 mil isk, when I was a bit sleepy in the in night. But right before I accepted, I noticed the big red 99% below market price or so. Then I was fully awake again.
Gamer4liff Caldari Metalworks THE INTERSTELLAR FOUNDRY	Posted - 2006.08.13 22:52:00 - [27] Not so much a trade/buying error, but I did get the agent offer for hookbill once, I could've sworn it said 9mill. not 90. Oh well, serves me right for not counting the 0's.
Angry Sheep Amarr Aur0ra	Posted - 2006.08.13 22:55:00 - [28] ok i'll admit it - I brought 1 peice of trit for 100 million. Not 100 mil trit @1 isk It's a Dog eat Dog World out there and I'm wearing Milky Bone underwear

Dark Shikari Caldari Imperium Technologies Firmus Ixion	Posted - 2006.08.13 23:20:00 - [30] Originally by: Ichabod Dirange I once bought some 400+ small tractor beam BPOs thinking it to be the same handout as POS control towers were. It was a calculated risk but I'd be damned if I was going to get left out of the instant riches once more. I bought 200 and managed to get them all resold for around market price within 2 months. --[23] Member-- Originally by: DB Preacher The only time BoB's backs are to the wall is when Backdoor Bandit is in local.
Ruffio Sepico Minmatar Hidden Agenda	Posted - 2006.08.13 23:24:00 - [31] Put a stack of interceptors on market for 500k a unit in stead of 5m a unit (long time ago).. someone made a steal there, doh... placed a wide order on scordite at 96pu in stead of 9.6pu..... made some people rich there too Home: http://www.hidden-agenda.co.uk
Kldraina	Posted - 2006.08.14 00:39:00 - [32] My two big oops: 1) Had something I bought off escrow for 400 mil, decided to put it up for 600 mil to see if anyone would buy it. Only I forgot some zeros and it sold for 600 thousand. 2) Was shopping on escrow, and didn't pay enough attention when buying something. Turns out I spent 700 mil on something worth 8 mil. mutters a curse at scammers
Ignasi The Merch	Posted - 2006.08.14 02:17:00 - [33] I once had 5 Hulks escrowed to me for 2.1mil. What a wild day... ------------------------------------------------ I buy/sell any and all faction ships. Drop me a line if interested in doing business!
Calladen Nimitz Caldari Libertas Enterprises	Posted - 2006.08.14 02:25:00 - [34] Back after beta there was an instance with my old friend Ragnar (TTI CEO) putting out a buy order for trit. He had placed several very large orders including a billion isk order (this was back when people were in frigs). Anyway he put an order out for 1 unit of trit for 100,000,000 isk instead of 100m trit for 1isk each. Of course someone sold it to him and cashed in. They've made alot of changes to the trade window and market interfaces. It used to be very easy to misprice things on the market and way overcharge people. Now you get a warning and stuff when its really out of whack from the norm. Calladen Nimitz

Lurtz Caldari Gunrunners and Gamblers	Posted - 2006.08.14 02:36:00 - [36] Originally by: Gumiho Please don't post in this thread....it'll give scammers more ideas on what works the best. Nonsense, the only time I was scammed was by CCP, when they put a price change on Small Tractor Beam I bpo in the early patch notes, but then changed their minds.... still have 4000 of the darn things.
Scoundrelus The Black Fleet Pirate Coalition	Posted - 2006.08.14 02:37:00 - [37] My biggest buying mistake? A Retriever. ===============================================
