I just put 3 core defence field purgers on my cormorant instead of the drake they were meant for  Now, I'm left with no isk and a still-crappy Drake 
So, I want to hear some other people's stories about dumb things they've done, to make me feel better while I grind up the isk for a new set of rigs 
What are the biggest mistakes you've ever made in Eve?

Well, today I put 6 cargo rigs up on the market (with my industrial alt) for 20 mil less than I meant to. They were sold automatically to the highest buy order for the amount I put them up for. 120 mil lost just like that.

1) Escrowed a battleship to a member of mOo for 0isk
In my defence it was a lot easier to do back in those days
I then had to deal with dozens of convo's from members of mOo asking for free ships :/
2) 3 weeks into the game I put all my worldly possessions into my newly purchased industrial ... though I would take a shortcut through 1 jump of low sec ...... you can imagine the rest :)

Lose a Cerberus with full T2 fit on a level 3 because I thought I could speed tank them, while I went to get some waffles.
Or lose a retriever while mining one night to get the last of the veld needed to build my covetor. I fell asleep then awoke 20 minutes later wondering where my ship was, and why I had mail. Lucky that was insured.

Swear to god it's true. Lost it to scrambling NPCs in the Zirizert system about two years ago, when I was in the Huzzah Alliance (if I remember correctly). I tried to use the repair drones on myself without researching it beforehand.
Unfortunately you won't find it on killboards, didn't post my first loss until about 1.5 years ago. Besides, it was kind of embarrassing

Hmm... tough choice.
I guess "creating an alt that reached 21 mil SP that I almost never use" would qualify as stupidest thing I've actually done.
P.S. Ok, not *creating* it. Actually continuing to do something with it past trial status.
P.P.S. Yes, it's over 21 mil SP. It's training Surgical Strike level 5 while inactive right now, while large Energy Turret level 5 is only 5 days away (73% done), and all prereqs for the specs are done already.
P.P.P.S. Anybody wanna' buy a Marauders 5 Paladin pilot ?

Took a Dominix out to a mission, took a beating, tried to kill off the interceptors so I could warp out. Why the hell are my drones taking so long to kill that last scrambler? Armour ticks down, I start to panic.
Realised just a little too late that my drones were targeting a Loyal Sansha cruiser, not the frigate.

Lost a vaga to a camp in HED as i forgot i was now neutral to IAC. ( this was some time ago )
"Never mind" I thought after being podded and made my way to the nearest vaga for sale.
Fitted this new ship in the same station I bought it in and undocked only to be blatted in short order by Concord as my sec was just slightly too low at the time.

Endless Corporation. To this day, I remain grateful to TAOSP for killing it in beta, and showing me that "giant retarded blob of crap quality pilots" is not as good as "tiny group of god-damned ninjas".
edit: easier to manage, too.

Lost a rigged recon to CONCORD then lost another one a week later to CONCORD again, and after that my sec was too low to enter the system where all my stuff was
those were accidents caused by lag n such but I also lost a cruiser attacking in high sec thinkin it was low sec

Criminal aggression on a high to low sec freighter op. Think it was on the way back from low to high sec some odd reason I got a timer from shooting something. On the gate to high sec I hear over TS don't jump right as I click jump. Make it 2km back to the gate and concord rips me a new one in half a second. That hurricane survived multiple blobs I was a little disappointed concord managed to snag it in the end.

I jumped a twenty-man gang into a camp of twice that knowing full well what was on the other side.
I didn't feel like going all the way home without a fight.
