Hi
I'm afraid to say this loan was taken to protect myself from an investment I wasn't sure would pay off within a reasonable time frame (and had already lost money on prior to taking the loan...) Sorry Gremdelll, but it's just not worth me paying back the loan. It would take me so long to get 30b back from that investment that I'd rather just have the 30b and stop interest payments now.
I see you wait 3 months to default, but I do feel kinda bad about this so I figured I'd give you the heads up so you can decide what to do those 50 Quafe Domi skins now. |

Hey guys,
So with the loan now considered defaulted we have 2 options.
Option 1: I divide the collateral amongst the investors, for each of you to decide when and how you would like to liquidate it. Current value of the collateral @ Jita prices is 33.75b.
Option 2: I sell the collateral, myself which would take time given the collateral and my available playtime. But I would be keeping the profit in the sales for the effort involved in liquidation.
Let me know which you guys would prefer by eve-mail and I'll get the ball rolling for either option.

Was the investment buying 50 Dominix Quafe Skins hoping to get rich? They sell about 1 per day in jita. Adding 50 of them to sell orders will crash the price hard. You could crash 14 of them into the Jita buy orders but after that it's a race to the bottom with the price. I seriously doubt 30b can be recouped from the collateral in any reasonable period of time. I hope your "investors" like flying skinned Domis!

noobs market orders wrote:**** poor attitude Agreed although the investors made it way too easy for him sell his skins for more than they were worth. His post was a scant 30 words. No mention what he needed the money for, or the potential risks, not a word about the liquidity of the collateral, nothing.
The investors didn't ask a single question. They sent their money blindly. The quality of the collateral was questionable to begin with. Had someone asked questions this would have been apparent quickly. Most people would fight to get their collateral back, but the borrower realizes the value of the stuff he put up is less than the 30b he received and is happy to walk away.
I wonder how much I can borrow if I offer up a stack of Vizan's Modified Armor EM hardeners as collateral? They are "selling" for 4.5b each in jita after all.

I sent my 10b blindly, absolutely I did. I had no idea what the collateral was, on the other hand I did have Grendell assuring me it was worth 33b ISK, which is 110% collateral. I think you'll find that's standard. This isn't my first rodeo, it is however, my first default since 2009 so I'll take that success rate any day.
I'll take the ISK please/option 2, Grendell. I would have taken the skins, but now everybody knows what the collateral is I'm not interested! |

I bought them with the intention of holding them long term. The loan was taken with good intentions (you'll have to take my word on that, but it doesn't really matter either way), as a way of freeing up my investment without giving up the skins. If skins had sold a bit faster than they are, even a little, I'd probably wouldn't have defaulted. I had to ask myself whether I would buy 50 quafe domi skins for 30b if it was offered to me, and the answer was no (even with the guilt of defaulting on top of that, which I do feel...honestly)
Sorry for the inconvenience, I hope you all get your isk back. |

Would you buy your honor back for the 5 odd bill id expect you to lose on the skins?

If "asking yourself if you'd like your own collateral back or just keep the money you borrowed" was even an option to you, I really doubt those good intentions...
So, you basically just sold 50 domi quafe skins to us for 30bill... grats |

I used the skins as my collateral for the previous loan too, and that ran for the full 6 months. Why would did I pay ANY interest if I didn't initially intend on paying the loan back? What did I have to gain by paying interest?

Vanaunge is looking to be replaced, if anyone is interested in investing 10b for 5 months @ 1.9% And I suspect Vanaunge was just an alt then.
why would I need to use an alt when there was people climbing over each other to offer up the isk? Even if I did use an alt, why would I use one who's active in the market forums (and in game)? Why would I risk ruining the reputation of that alt? The simple answer is that it wasn't an alt. |

There was 2 people; me and Ulisse Kromm. Would hardly call that people climbing over each :) But I could be wrong about the alt thing, it's just very suspicious given your current behavior and attitude. |

2 offers for isk within 2 hours of having posted the thread. Do you think I'd have struggled to fill the loan had vanauge not posted? If you hadn't offered up the isk, someone else would have. The previous loan of 50b was also filled within a few hours. Folks in MD being too eager to offer up isk for a secured loan is a far simpler explanation that doesn't require as many assumptions. |

And in this case, it was the power of choice. Could have absorbed this virtual loss unto yourself rather than passing the burden to others, no matter how lowly you think of investors readily willing to hand you ISK for a collateralised loan. But that would, of course, require a very basic level of integrity.

bottom line you publically lost isk, and we all think its hilarious.

Ok since I've only gotten 1 reply in terms of the 2 options I'll just go ahead and start liquidating. I'm not really worried about if I can get enough sales to cover the investments. I'm actually quite confident I'll get more, than what's needed. But like I said it will just take time.

If you guys get this worked up about someone defaulting on a 30b loan secured @ 110%, I can't imagine how you cope with witnessing actual abuse of power. |

You're the only one that values that collateral at 110% though. If you'd actually want to liquidate it within less than a year's time, it would barely be worth 50%... But just keep telling yourself whatever makes you sleep at night.
Just keep in mind you'll probably never get a loan again on that character or any other character associated with it. (Smart call by the way, not using your main and just an alt in a NPC corp - which is just another indicator of how this was a scam from the start) |

At no point was the collateral worth 110% of the loan amount. That's not your problem though as that falls on the investors for failure to perform their own due diligence. For those who think that was Grendell's job I would like to point out that in most real-world transactions involving escrow the escrow merely holds the goods, they do not provide due diligence. It's still up to the investors to do their homework.

Just to clear things up guys, I am not an alt of wreck 21. I filled the loan and a few days later recieved an offer I couldn't refuse in the end and asked to be withdrawn. I would like for MY reputation to remain intact. As I may one day need a loan. |
