I had some Damage Controls on sale in Frarn, 52 to be precise. A character called Taiwanese National bought all 52 in one go... I check the market for the region and there's hardly any more on sale for under 400,000 ISK! His bio seems to take pleasure stating that he has "ruined" the Heimatar economy, which is interesting.
Has this guy struck before? I am intruiged at this market PvP!

1. Go to other region.
2. Buy 500 damage controls for cheap.
3. Resell for 350k each in Heimatar.
4. When Taiwanese undercuts you, undercut him back.
5. ???
6. Profit!

Just keep producing/reselling them at your usual price or even a little higher. Either one of two things will happen:
1. People will buy them and leave the more expensive ones on the market.
2. He will buy them all again. If he buys them all again simply produce and sell more. Until one of two things happen: A. you become so wealthy that you build a Titan and spend your days playing one-handed. B. Taiwanese guy runs out of money to buy them with and can't sell his own overpriced ones because you have more on the market for much cheaper.
Either way if you keep selling them you are in a win/win situation.

Um, it's impossible to produce damage controls because the BPO is not in the game.

Not true, they wouldn't want to tip him off that the autorities were on the way, they'd censor it AFTER they shot him and billed his family for the bullet.

TN is the money printing machine,
you don't need to make money yourself if you are a shareholder.
You make more money if you co-opreate with TN.

You never make money cooperating with pricefixers.
You can, on the other hand, make billions by screwing them over.

Maybe more true.
If the market will hold a price, then that's that.
