OC had the Moa print in beta.
Moas in retail started at 20m, and some people even did BYOMx2 deals at first (like what hooded monk did for armas.) The prices dropped rapidly to about 8-9m until better researched prints were out and megacyte had gone down below 7000.
We got a infi BPC for 20m back then :) -----------------------------------

Moas were sellin on the market at 24m when i first started playing eve, not to long after release, so it could well be that some peeps were chargeing more 4 them but 20-25m was certainly the moa/maller average

It was 20m for about one week. within another week it was 10m.
People just tried to get in on the quick cash for stupid people who want the best thing NOW. Of course, they pay 3x the cost for not waiting a couple weeks. -----------------------------------

I read thru the link and noticed he mentioned the ship was fully outfitted with the best gear so i can understand it costing 35mill if it had proto rails named AB's and MWD's etc. ----------------------

Moas would go 35 mil i imagine, at one point in beta, there were only the L1 cruisers. Then they released on of moa, thorax, rupture, and maller bpos.
Since their was an exploit earlier in beta, and some people had alot of spare isk... ya its possible. The demand was huge after all. _______________________________________________

Yes, Moa's along with other level 3 cruisers ranged from 14 to 20 mil in the early days. It took a good 6-8 weeks after release before we saw the prices come down to the 7 mil range.
I paid 12 mil for my first Rupture, a corp mate got a "good deal" on a Moa for 14 and so on and so on. ------

I remember when every single person in eve was given 200,000 isk because the server had to be "rolled back" to the prior configuration/data save the day before. So anything you did for about 18 hours was lost. Poof. Just like that. If your ship was gone, it came back. If you mined all day, well .. the ore aint there.
This affected the market big time. Frigates shot up in price by 10x, with cheap ones running in the 250k isk range. The reason being that EVERYONE, even brand new players, had 200k.
It was during this time I believe cruiser pricing was also rampantly high. 35 mill within one region with none others for sale isn't unspeakable. Especially in non-caldari space. [BTLS] Canis Lupus Military Lt. General - "I was around before all the dummies became mans best friend." |

even in beta when the first moa bps were out, they sold for 15mil each, but only because back them 1mil was like 10mil today
comparatively, its like buying a battleship
but during retail, the average price was never past 25mil _____________________________________ Perpetually driven, your end is our beginning. "Can I be a consultant for EVE II?" - WhiteDwarf |

back when we started, NPC had (if i remember correctly) roughly a 300% price... if it costs 100%(minerals), they earned 200% ontop...

NPC value for MOA was about 16 mil back in the day. When CCP stopped seeding the market with ships I still don't think I seen one go for more than 15 mil or so. Mega was about 3k each and zyd was 700 each back then too. Oh I paid 226 mil for my Raven in Beta Spelling corrections welcome, but don't expect me to edit my post. |

Most definitely got a deal on that badass Thorax for 16M (Bought it from Asguard Industries). We had to sell two Vexors to make the money, but it was worth it! First ship I didn't do a BYOM on.
I remember Moas were the prefered ship at the time, and went for about 18M. This was certainly in the first month of release. NOBODY was in a Battleship at the time. I know, because I was one of about the first 50 or 100 in one (thanks to the old chaining). ------------------------------------------------

Quote: It wasnt Battleship BP's Procion. it was cruiser prints, OC had the Thorax and someone else had the MOA print and someone else got the Maller (RUS got Maller?)
i didnt mean BP's i meant the only 2 corp's to actually save up and buy a battleship from NPC in the last stage of beta.
Quote: I remember having a BS in the last stages of beta. The last day to be exact. Many flew BS that day
everyone had a bship and maxed skills on armageddon day

An Omen did cost about 9.5 mios in Beta. An Maller about 15 mios, i assume that an Moa was about the same price in average...as far as i remember..... Don't ask "can i have your stuff" because i'll give it to everybody else than you! |

It's possible. If it's true he probably bought one of the first ones to roll off the assembly line.
The thing you need to remember is that in the early days, noone had a print for cruisers or battleships. noone. There was a mad dash for people to acquire those. Imagine if you acquired one, & the only one. & you just blew your entire wad that your corp had devoted all their time to earning.
It was much like cloaking devices or +4 implants. You had a monopoly & people wanted your ships. I don't recall the exact price of the cruisers, b/c personally i stayed in my inustrial untill i earned enough cash to buy my first battleship. It was a typhoon. I paid 103m isk for it. It was NOT one of the first ones to roll off the assy line either. It was probably 6 weeks after they began rolling off the line, & I do remember when Typhoons were selling for in excess of 150m isk. & this was during a time when you could by Megacyte for around 1800 isk per unit, & Zydrine for around 800 isk.
