Shares owned by myself : 9800 Shares owned by other investors: 0 Remaining shares : 6200
Price per share: 1,000,000 isk. Dividends: min 5%. First trench will pe payed in the 25'th of March. Funding timeframe: 25th Feb is the last day I'll take in isk then I'll start with whatever is there. Char receiving the money: Yougotripped
Introduction:
Given the time requirements, multiregional trading has always been an elusive goal at best and something impossible to afford for most of us. While it is true that I'm exceptionally low on time right now, I found it I can always take time to run this IPO by revising my daily schedule and making full use of multitasking while putting forth an extremely optimized business plan.
I've been playing Eve for quite some time now, being drawn to the economical aspect of the game rather than PVP. As such, I've quite enjoyed myself trading or ripping people off whatever you want to name it) to the point I've asked some of my friends to play the game too and decided to start a corporation, each of us fulfilling more or less specialized roles.
Currents assets include:
Mission running ships: 4.6 billions. Mining ships: 100 mills. Freighter: 1 bill.
Various T1 BPOs: 3.5 bills.
Minerals: more than 100 mils. Salvage parts: 250 mils
Cash: Corp wallet: 100 mills. Escrow: roughly 50 mills
TOTAL: 9,800,000,000
For the purpose of this IPO I'll allocate 2 accounts. Each of them has a production char. In addition to this I will create some new trading alts for the designed purpose of this IPO.
Business plan:
As you might have guessed this IPO is in fact a multiregional recycling operation supplemented by manufacturing and own mission running if needed. I will dispatch a number of freshly created trading alts to all the major regions placing limited range buy orders for the most profitable (read volume * ROI/piece) level 4 mission loot. 48 orders per region is not much and I'm aware that I might miss some less profitable items, however what makes this IPO unique is the added ability of each and everyone of one you to directly influence the profitability of your investment through selling (via normal market or contracts) your mission loot/salvage to me / the alt in charge of whatever region you're in. Their names / base operating station will be revealed to you prior to launching.
The obtained minerals / salvage parts will be used to manufacture a steady flux of T1 ships and rigs any excess minerals being dumped in Jita. The aim here is to ensure full time production for the BPOs even if that means supplementing some mineral types like zydrine from the local market.
Risks:
By going through this scenario just once you must have realized that in due time competition will drive the prices up for whatever I'm buying and profits will decrease slowly. I am counting on this, depending on how fierce the competition sooner or later I will enforce Jita buy prices in those regions, however this comes at the cost of reducing my orders range to minimize the time spent gathering stuff, mineral prices volatility. Since the last stage is manufacturing this risk is less important, nevertheless present.
Projected profits:
Using high ROI orders in just one region and discontinued production I was able to turn a 2 bills bond, 12% per month interest into 4.5 bills. I'll take that as the base profitability level.
In the event something doesn't go as planed, mission running will be used bring the profits to the minimum 5%. Currently running L4 missions nets at least 50 mills per day minimum.

Edited by: YouGotRipped on 19/02/2008 16:17:26 Profit will be divided as follows:
My salary will consist of 50% of the total profit. 25% allocated to expanding the NAV. I might decide to buy additional BPOs if the mineral flux dictates it or I might anchor a high sec POS and start some copying/invention jobs when the skills allow it. 25% of the total profit distributed to investors as dividends.
Buyback:
Shares buyback is available after 1 month (starting 25th of March) being covered from the 25% profit allocated to expanding the IPO.

I just get this really strong feeling like it's only a matter of time before you cut and run. It may be this IPO, or it may be the next 10b one, or the 30b one after that.
Good luck anyway I guess, I hope I am wrong but I shudder whenever I see your name asking for public investment.

I'm adjusting the IPO on the fly, any constructive criticism is welcomed.

If that is your business plan, you are flatly not qualified to run this business.
If you don't know why, try actually doing what your IPO plans to do for a few hours and see if you start to understand.
Sorry, better luck next time. And, no, as--full disclosure here--I'd be a direct competitor, I have absolutely no interest in correcting your mistake(s).

So if you plan to run this at Jita prices then why not do it in Jita where you don't have to waste endless hours collecting the stuff from across several regions?
By the way, to anyone that invests in this I would like to say, you got ripped. So don't come crying to me....

Yes I'm aware that Delakut is being pushed hard with his Jita recycling op.
I will eventually end up in Jita and give him a hand, however as long as there is a price difference between Forge and other regions I will exploit that first.
My alts however will remain in other regions as price updating there is not so frequent. The goal here is to minimize the cycle time money -> money and this business plan is as optimized as possible.

Hi,
In a gesture of good faith I will reveal my present alts:
I'm a production char, freighter pilot, if you check my standings you'll see that I'm capable of lossless recycling in any Caldari Navy station.

I feel sorry for anyone investing in this IPO or the next IPO or the next. Maybe this IPO will work out fine. Maybe the second IPO will work out fine. Eventually it will be a scam. And I 100% believe everyone who invests deserves to be scammed, if you invest in someone named "YouGotRipped" you will get ripped. Stacking Penalty / Resists Explained |

If I were you I'd pray this was a scam. The only smart thing you could do is invest. Thus when I'll be skimming your orders you will find some relief in knowing that at least a part of what you've lost will be returned to you. Hahah

Problem with you and many other market regulars is that you cannot see past your limitations and in doing so you drag the whole forum down with you.
Ricdic's gut is upside down btw.
