Sometimes I wonder if people remember that this is only a game. 
Time is money? lol This is a game.

I do it! I got a Stabber BPO, ME'd it, and now I build and sell them at a loss just to annoy the 1 isk undercutters.
Eve is a game. I'll play it how I want. I don't care how much isk I've got in my wallet, so long as I've got enough to do what I want.
I sell some tech-2 ammo and I like the 1-isk-undercutters more than the 100 isk undercutters.
We don't want the customers believe that they can get the ammo any cheaper just because there is sometimes a bit more on the market than usually. 
I play the 1 isk game sometimes too. Then everyone sells their ammo while keeping the price at a 'reasonable' level.

Maybe he gets his minerals for free by mining them himself
IMHO Time is not free, and minerals never are. If he is mining them himself and building something and selling it for less than the mineral cost, he's giving away his time at a discounted rate instead of his isk.
I'm not sure which is worse.
My game time is precious, I certainly don't want to spend it mining "free" veldspar so someone I don't know can have a cheaper ship.

If you want to make ISK in the 'game' then selling below build/mineral cost is just poor business.
However lots of people enjoy the 'game' without needing to calculate every action as if it were a business (don't you get enough of that at work?). And good luck to them if they're having fun...Long may that continue.
If you're goign to play the game as a manufacturer, you really should be willing to calculate build costs, there's even tools like eve-meep and mlcalc that will do the number-crunching for you.
Going back to the OP, if it wasn't a bulk order (>1) it was probably someone desperate to unload a used ship.
