I'm noticing a lot of items, salvage, manufacturing equipment, etc., with multiple sell orders of 1 isk. I check eve-central and the sell/buy average might only be 500 isk, although sometimes is it a bit more, maybe 50k. It will be in stuff outside my normal market, so I check jita for the buy prices and buy based on the buy orders, at 1 isk why the hell not? My risk is minimal.
I'm just wondering how this happens. Are players selling at the market average, which is 1 isk, and just doing no research at all? I also considered bait orders, but I usually do pickups weeks apart, so if that is what it is, it won't affect me much.
The main reason I"m surprised, is because usually players will just scrap or trash items valued at 1 isk, rather than tie up one of their limited order slots.

if you dump on buy orders, you dont use order slots

Yea, no buy orders in region, that's why this behavior is so interesting. These are 1 Isk sell orders.

Maybe what he was saying is, someone had originally set up a trick buy order for e.g. 10x of the item, for 1 ISK each.
Another person comes by, and without thinking autosells his loot. He maybe has 20x of this item. The first 10x autosell for 1 ISK and the other 10x create a sell order for 1 ISK.
Is that possible?

Yeah if you have the option set to anything other than "sell instantly" it'll create a sell order at the price listed. That's why you'll sometimes see things with sell orders .01 isk above the highest buy order. |

This sounds the most likely. Someone didn't notice that they didn't have sell immediate set, so when they did a sale at regional average, it created sell orders for 1 isk. That explains why there were multiple sell orders from the same dude. Was probably selling different stacks without re-stacking first.
