Mortania Minmatar Carbide Industries Apocalyptica.	Posted - 2007.03.02 06:52:00 - [1] Edited by: Mortania on 02/03/2007 06:48:17 Using the standard yearly operating costs that applied to the purchase price of all t2 bpos, I've discovered that the fair market value price of all hulks is in fact: 15.746 Billion ISK, per. This represents the difference between a max'd Exhumer pilot vs. a max'd Covetor pilot mining Omber for a year. By my simple calculations this means Hulks are going for only 3% of their Fair Market Value. Sounds like a massive bargain to me. ---

Azerrad InExile	Posted - 2007.03.02 07:03:00 - [4] It could also be argued that T2 BPOs are massively overpriced going by the standard Hulk pricing formula of build price x ~17. By that formula T2 BPOs should be free since they're build price is 0! t20: "So Let us play and enjoy the game you and I both love on the same level."

The point is you can't necessarily apply the pricing scheme of one product to another. Otherwise you get situations like 15b isk Hulks and free T2 BPOs. t20: "So Let us play and enjoy the game you and I both love on the same level."

Adam Weishaupt Minmatar Illumination Inc.	Posted - 2007.03.02 07:47:00 - [13] I think 500 is a good price. It's round, it's stable, it makes the BPO owners ridiculously rich, and obligates your average Exhumers 5 pilot to something like 30-40 hours of high end mining, assuming no problems and all the best equipment to reach positive return on investment. If anything was ever underpriced, it was the Skiff when Morphite was still worth 12000+, you could break ROI on your first mining op...

Except that you need a system with low true sec. rating to mine it and that it was already more profitable to mine arkonor, bistot, crokite and maybe even dark ochre (nocx around 500isk) with a covetor during that time than to mine mercoxit with a skiff.

Caligulus Caldari Eve University Ivy League	Posted - 2007.03.02 09:15:00 - [19] Your logic is flawed. No tool is useful without a user. No user is useful without a tool. You cannot attribute the value of the tool based on the labour of the user. For you see in fact, you've made the gross miscalculation of combining the value of the user and the value of the tool.

Barbarellas Daughter	Posted - 2007.03.02 09:22:00 - [20] I hope they ban you for account sharing. How else could you mine 23/7? Or macro mining.... Imagine there are casual players, playing some hours a week. I doubt they spend all their time with mining. So even if they mine half of their eve time (which is quite much) the payback time is a little bit higher than u think it is. Of course it would be nice if they charge power-macro-sharing-toons like u 15b and the non-retarded people a reasonable price. Now i wrote 5 min for your post and couldnt mine in this time. You owe me 10m.

Quilan Ziller Gallente Children of Azathoth	Posted - 2007.03.02 09:44:00 - [24] Yeah, right. People were refusing free EMP Smartbomb II BPCs (or, rather, were not interested). There are T2 BPOs and there are T2 BPOs. When someone utters the words "T2 BPO", he usually means "Hulk BPO", or "Ishtar BPO" or "Hammerhead II BPO", not "Spodumain Mining Crystal BPO". When people say that Hulks are overpriced, they do not mean that purchasing a Hulk does not make economic sense (it does - that is why they sell even for 550 mil). What people mean is that Hulk BPO owners are greedy bastards, and they are making money out of nothing - with no risk and no competition. Now, please, do not beat up a dead horse and argue that most poor hardworkiong BPO owners have purchased their prints for billions of iskies. You get no sympathy here. Yes, there are also people who have paid 300 or 400 million for a single unit of Zydrine. So what? Me (and other anti-BPO people) are arguing from the point of game mechanics. Current game mechanics is such that a Hulk BPO owner is getting an ungodly profit with a relatively small time and skill investment, and with absolutely ZERO risk. There is NO other occupation in game that would provide THAT kind of profit with THAT little effort. Ergo, T2 BPOs (and I don't mean Veldspar Mining Crystal II BPOs - I mean "good" BPOs) have to be nerfed - heavily into the ground. Either they have to be eliminated (BPO->BPC), or the competing ways of making T2 stuff (Invention etc) have to be significantly buffed to create some real competition. T2 manufacturing has to require effort. HACs should cost 10 times ore more than T1 cruisers. But the people who are basically printing ISK now with impunity have to have their printers taken from them one way or the other. And, no, seeding more T2 BPOs with the lottery is not the solution. ______________________________________________________________ Of course the game is rigged.

Quilan Ziller Gallente Children of Azathoth	Posted - 2007.03.02 09:46:00 - [25] And one more thing.... If the smartie BPO is so bad - why even complain about the possible nerf? It sucks, right? (Just kidding. I know what you are talking about. But nobody is actually proposing to take the BPOs away without any compensation, so your income probably won't suffer much). ______________________________________________________________ Of course the game is rigged.

Mortania Minmatar Carbide Industries Apocalyptica.	Posted - 2007.03.02 09:52:00 - [26] Originally by: Quilan Ziller ...ZERO risk... I don't think you've ever been war-dec'd by 3 corps simultaneously. EVE is a primarily PvP game. Nothing has ZERO risk. And several of the T2 BPOs you listed can be made into good money makers. People want stuff for free without effort. The problem is in supply. If you had the BPO you'd charge what the market could bare as well. It's not GREED. It's an open market. If you don't charge what the market will bear, someone will buy up your T2 goods and resell them for the profit they will earn. This is why BIG and other producers who refused to increase pricing had cues of multiple years on all of their goods. Fat lot good that was doing anyone. ---
Mortania Minmatar Carbide Industries Apocalyptica.	Posted - 2007.03.02 09:54:00 - [27] PPS: I have no knowledge of any Smartbomb nerfing. I guess I have some reading to do. I didn't select the SB BPO because of any recent news. It was a T2 BPO which we never operate because the profit is less than most T1 BPOs we operate. ---

Disclosure: I have never produced anything industrially within EVE.
SN3263827 The Black Rabbits Fatal Persuasion	Posted - 2007.03.02 11:15:00 - [29] When a miner can (legally) make isk while afk, as a T2 producer can by assigning build jobs, your argument on ROI will hold water. At the moment it resembles a sieve. Time spent at keyboard moving minerals to and from cans/cargohold does not equate to time spent in bed while a factory slot churns out vagabonds, even during DT. _____________________________________________

Yes, there are also people who have paid 300 or 400 million for a single unit of Zydrine. So what? Greedy? No, its called capitalism. In capitalism, you produce an item and sell at the market price. The market decides what the price is. In this case, there is a static supply curve, which intersects the demand curve around 500 million. And so that is where people sell at. There is no one person in eve "choosing" what the hulk price is. If I sold Hulks at 200m (no I don't have a BPO), someone would buy them up and put them back at the market price. There are only two ways to drop the hulk price. One is to increase supply (i.e. fix invention so it works for Hulks, yes, I mean you CCP), and the other is to decrease demand, i.e. stop buying them!

Um, I would call paying 80 billion for a BPO that might be worthless when invention is fixed to allow the invention of Hulks a huge risk. EVE-Trance Radio--The EVE Textboard

Um, I would call paying 100 billion for a BPO that might be worthless when invention is fixed to allow the invention of Hulks a huge risk. Most T2 BPOs are selling for obscenely high prices at the moment. Almost any other blueprint or method of earning money in EVE will make your money back faster than a tech 2 BPO. They're not the magic money trees that most people imagine them as. You can make more with a few T1 battleship/battlecruiser BPOs and 10 billion in capital than you can with a 100-billion-ISK hulk BPO. That, by the way, is why I don't actually own any T2 BPOs at all. You talk as if that 100Bn is lost forever. But the truth is that one can pay that 100Bn, make huge margins on producing those hulks, then sell the BPO and get your 100Bn back.
Jarjar Celestial Apocalypse Insurgency	Posted - 2007.03.02 12:48:00 - [32] If invention gets fixed, and hulks drop in prices to, say, 200 mil, the blueprint won't sell for 100Bn anymore, which is his point. "In Communist China ISK buys YOU!!" - random bio

Live Eye	Posted - 2007.03.02 17:00:00 - [39] You get a compounding 15% and 5% more yeild bonus, maximum, with a hulk instead of a covetor. After that modulated lasers and t2 crystals can still be used on any barge. And using it for omber means high sec which totally negates its value for defense. Plus your number is no doubt based on a miner going 24/7 non stop without having to work in the fact that most solo miners have to haul their own ore and constantly find omber rocks in systems that are most likely farmed to hell. This is obviously a joke but for anyone who would take it the least bit seriously, please keep the facts in mind... Live Eye

No, you are NOT risking your BPOs if you are wardecced. Your BPOs are sitting safe and sound inside an NPC station. If you have jump clones and alts (and everyone does), you don't even need to stop production in times of war. It is ZERO risk - uless you get scammed out of your precious BPO. If I am a miner, a ratter, or a mission runner, I cannot safely practice these activities while the war is on. Because I have to undock, you know. Not so with a T2 BPO. And if you were wondering, yes, I have been wardecced by 4 corps simultaneously. So what? Now, as far as "open market" goes... There is NO "OPEN" OR "FREE" T2 MARKET IN EVE!!!! There are very few "good" T2 BPOs, which are consolidated in the hands of the chosen few. Yes, very, very few. These few don't have any competition. Their "business" has no operating costs whatsoever. They do not have to compete, and they do not compete with each other - because their stuff will be bought up anyway. There is no danger whatsoever that someone else will make a better ship or module - because the number of BPOs seeded has been hardwired by CCP. What is really annoying is that a lot of these people then go, post to the forums, and try to justify the existence of theit isk printers. Really sad. ______________________________________________________________ Of course the game is rigged. Don't let that stop you--if you don't play, you can't win. - Robert Heinlein

Niton Stormrider HCD	Posted - 2007.03.08 20:39:00 - [46] "15.746 Billion ISK, per. This represents the difference between a max'd Exhumer pilot vs. a max'd Covetor pilot mining Omber for a year." Wait a sec, you mean to say that you think a fair market price for a piece of equipment is a price that it takes a YEAR to repay? Let's say my niece is running a lemonade stand and could theoretically sell $50 worth of lemonade a day (assuming she didn't, you know, have ANY life other than selling lemonade), are you saying she should be charged $18520 for a crate, a pitcher, and a handpainted sign? ROI times on the order of years is acceptable in RL business (those with low margins anyway) like gravel mining and such, but to suggest that people should pony up that kinda case in game is ludicrous. If a Hulk actually sold for that much, I'd give not a thought to mining in a covetor for the rest of my Eve days, since then I could turn a profit at least once before I get sick of the game and leave. How did you arrive at a year's mining as a reasonable time frame? Why not ten years?
