Do you think there is a market for BPO leasing?

i.e. paying for access to locked down BPOs in a corp

I have seen Grendell do this with T2 BPOs but not an offering for normal T1s

I would also be interested to hear any ideas on valuing the lease

Thanks

Problem is you can only do one lease per corp, as the BPOs will be locked in a corp hangar and all manufacturing jobs will be 'corp jobs', which anyone with roles can cancel/complete. I put a lot of thought in getting it to work (different divisions/locations, etc) but the roles thing is just something you can't get around.

Not that there was much interest at the time. I once offered access to my complete T1 sub-capital BPO collection, with the exception of BS BPOs, for 150M/month. With a complete set of BPOs you can always pick the most profitable item and easily earn billions a week. No one took me up on it, even though 150M/month was a pittance.
(The collection was complete, including all sub-cap T1 ships, modules, ammo and rigs, with minimum ME 9 / PE 9)
