Originally by: Kolbert Expect prices to drop A LOT.. Granted, you first need to have a covetor BPO to make BPC's from.
I expect to see Hulks for less than 200 mil and possibly cheaper in the very near future.
Especially since it will only cost the inventors about 80million per hulk to make.
Even at 200million per, it's still a worthwhile invention.

The patch notes relating to todays patch reveal Hulks can be invented from T1 Barge bpc. I presume this would be the Covetor BPC, would I be right in presuming the same would apply to invention of Skiff and Macks BPC from the Procurer and Retriver BPC ?

well, datacores are at 3-19-07 going for 15-25 million each ( domain) and incognito ship interface is selling in jita for 900-1.6 billion each .. and of course you need covetor bpc's .. so with the required items hulks will likly be around 250-400 million each with bpc's probibly say 100-150 million per run... but of course like the rattlesnake people will be sell the bpc for way more than you can perchase the finished product to try to recover the losses in invention and yes they will be many losses , in all the descussions i've had and heard noboby seems to relize that invention is a crap-shoot no matter what you build

The interfaces are one time purchases though.
and you can resell them.

You hate competitors, don't you 
There is a lot of success histories on invention, modules seems to have 4/5 chance of success with skills @ 4, AFs/Ceptors too. I don't know about bigger ships, but I guess the ones doing it is trying to keep the general EvE population out of the loop on this.
Only thing I DO know, it not a crap shoot, and will make a dent in the income of any T2 producer charging 100% more then that cost of producing the item.

I can't really ever see an end to this. The profit margins on Hulks are so high, that those who monopolize their production stand to lose a good deal of profit from invention. Whats to keep the people who own hulk BPO's and manufacture Hulks for 600 mil from buying up all of the cheaper ones on the market made by invention, and reselling them for 600 mil?

Ya on 3-19-07 thats how much datacores are, but you need to look again, datacores are down to 3 million a pop, and will only get cheaper as the market will be flooded with them since you can buy so many at once at cheaper RP's.

They're not going to be able to buy every hulk on the market, because the offer will expand with the demand. Worse, if they create an artificially high demand, the price of invented hulks will steadily increase, which will increase the margins of inventors, which in turn will make more and more people invent them... After that, undercutting by lots of sellers will inevitably drive the prices down.

The higher the prices.
The more the inventors will produce.
It's not a limited market anymore. That's the main deal.

Well, one can always sell only 1 hulk at a time to prevent someone from buying the hulks with intent to resell.
Kinda like what Nagamazon does.

Originally by: Da'Barador Hell with them all now, I'll use a Covetor.
Exactly! Run the numbers and it makes zero sense to buy a Hulk as it will take you weeks (maybe months) of constant play to make back the isk.
Yes if you are a macro-miner then you can make isk as you aren't really THERE having to play. So for all who like to ore for a few hours a day you will NOT make back the isk spent on buying a Hulk.
Stick with a Covetor till the prices drop like some here think they will.
