Are there businesses out there renting BPOĘs for a fee?
I would like to rent a researched Capital Construction Parts BPO for one week. The one I have is in the research lab and I would like to continue my Freighter production. I offer to pay 14 M for the weeks rental; thatĘs equivalent to a 6.12% monthly ROI. Rental fee is negotiable. Please contact me or leave a post if you have a BPO collecting dust in your hangar and would like to rent it.
Also, I would like to know what other BPOĘs are available for rental.
Thanks in advanced.

Once having rented a BPO - why would you give it back?
Is there something inbuilt into the game that allows this - or does it have to be based on trust?
Yes, it would have to be based on trust. The BPO in question is worth about 915 M ISK.

Why not buy BPC's? You could get about 15 runs off BPC's for 15 mil. Granted you may need more runs then that... in which case you should really offer more than 15 mil, as 6.12% monthly ROI is quite low. The person would prob make more running his own copies.
If I were to build Freighters using 1 Mil per run BPCs I would make about 10 Mil per Freighter.
6.12% is an average return for a Freighter manufacturing business. Not sure why I should pay more than what I get out of it. There is no point to pay more than my loss due to research delay.

While sales margins are about 25%, because of the capital needed to operate a freighter business, the return on investment is on average 6%. This applies not only to me but to anyone building Freighters.
If you are lucky enough to be selling BPCs at 1 Mil, then this offer is definitely not for you. However you need to realize that at 1 Mil BPCs, Freighter Cost which in this case is mineral cost plus BPCs cost equals current market price. So BPCs are for people that mine their own minerals or that donĘt mind the extra cost to build in 0.0.
My offer is a pro-rated value of what the BPO provides the business. I think it is a fair offer and not a low amount as you describe it.

Please tell me you understand why this is complete nonsense.
As a nonsense as it sounds, I know a lot of people that mine their own minerals with the sole purpose to build their own ships using BPCs.
