STK was among those to bail out first from Ascenia with their stuff. Oh, i bet you guys still have loads off stuff in Stain, just lying around for the victorious return to Feyth once the pets are kicked out. And during the ASCN times, prices wasnt exactly 10% cheaper then Empire prices, as pr rule set by CYVOK huh? During the war they were set sky high. So much for the production help.
My congratulations on getting quite so many lies or inaccuracies into one post.
Our valuables (those which would fit in my carrier) weren't evacuated out of AZN until it was under total siege and ASCN resistance had evaporated. (And yes, that was one scary undock). Ditto our T2 bpo's in EPR (props to badfish for honesty and integrity with a 300+ billion cargo!).
As for the prices, truly you excel yourself in talking tosh. The rule set by CYVOK was not more than 10% HIGHER than Empire prices, not lower. And that only applied to T1 anyway.
But regardless of the fact we could have charged more, we didn't. I was effectively the STK AZN station and sales manager during the war and I know what prices I was charging. Modules and interceptors went up at Jita prices (and yes, I did check them every time). T2 cruisers went up at Jita +10% because of the carrier space they took. Whilst dictors went up at Jita MINUS 25% or so because we wanted people to feel better able to risk them. Oh and BS? They went up for something like 25% BELOW cost price - and at the end of the war we still had around 40 unsold BS in AZN. (BoB may remember the AZN lemming charges - that was us working through some of this stockpile!) And none of that counts the 425 rails and covops cloaks that were going to alliance at cost price (which cost us billions but it was for the cause) or the T1 frigs and modules we donated in bulk to DS1 for their carrier ops.
And then long after the event, weasels like you come along with your insulting myths and lies. Well, I know what prices we charged. As do the many grateful people who came to AZN to replace gear and were happy to pay so little for it.
There probably were profiteers there. And of course CCP never did provide any way of stopping hostiles from manipulating the market - indeed they still boast about how easily people can do it. But you can take your accusations about STK profiteering and, quite frankly, shove them where the sun is occluded!
I'm sorry, asmuch as i know i shouldn't post as to not to get involved into this political stuff but that is complete and utter bull ****.
Anyone remember those Cerb's that were going out for 100 mil you know 170mil cheaper and all that, you know the ones thats cost 28mil to make, oh wait you could only get one if you have 200+ kills. Or how about all those guns that were at base price, no-one told me the base price was 20mil for a gun? Ok you might have gave out Domi's ect for 49mil but how about all the mods to fit it out at triple the price???
STK were some of the last to leave, Right ...
Cov Ops cloaks going chepa yeah sure ....
By the way this has nothing to do with my Corp or Alliance, just some personal feelings coming our here, don't take this personally or anything, i'll probably regret this soon anyway.
But half the people in ASCN didn't even see any of this stuff and if i remember correctly our corp got NOTHING, no Alliance support infact if i remember correctly we were stuck in Qs- and CORM were the only ones to come and try and help us but we told them to go back because 15 CORM + 15 Species possibly more from both corps against about 70 enemies, im sorry but i don't like those odds.
And don't feed me bull ****, and don't tell me about Market Manipulation, everyone knew that it was going on even before the ASCN war and were told to use Escrow, so you could also see who was selling and it would be available to ASCN only.
