there are many things that are not profitable at times, just deal with it and go for things that are worth it.

allthough im not sure if u did the numbers right, but at least with the crow you shouldnt lose money at least.

It's not uncommon for things to be unprofitable for periods of time. Especially when there's lead times involved. People tracking what they paid for materials, rather than what they would pay for them now, etc.

Woo! CSM XI!

Yes let me inform you about T2BPO's. T2BPO's were blueprints that were given to a select number of eve players. The prices you are seeing are most likely corect. You as an EVE pleb simply can not manufacture certain T2 ships for profit as CCP in their wisdom have allowed a select number of players the ability to masively undercut you and still maintain good profit margins by using blueprints that you do not have acess to. These blue prints are far more efficent to any that you have access to, have unlimited runs and are no longer being given to new players.

The cost of manufacturing from a T2BPO is tiny compared to invention. DO not let EVE pets tell you that T2BPO cost billions of isk because that is simply not true. Indeed it will cost you billions of isk if you want a T2BPO they however were given theres in exchange for cheap and easy Research Points. No you can't exchange your reserch points for T2BPO's.

just ignore him...he does that every once and a while at full moon.

in his world everyone and everything, including the person that invented mathematics is part of the huge T2 BPO conspiracry while ignoring any facts caclulations. funny to read tho.

yea dont worrie, BPO´s have nothing to do with this...its happends to all items in waves at times of overproduction, especially on so rarely purchased items like crows. it seems there only less than 20 getting sold everyday in jita.

btw. your numbers dont seem to be accurate, for example these datacore cost less than 100k that you are using in jita, your sheet says 300k for some reason.

Prices drop below profitability on a wide range of products. The best defence is a variety of manufacturing possibilities, people that haven't done the maths, traders uninterested in the mineral/manufacture value of products, better skilled players etc. spring up all the time.

In hindsight my post should have had more psssshhhh
