UPDATE: As of August 15 5:00 EVE Time, our friendly neighbourhood market manipulators have struck again. Once again it is suggested to keep your sell orders back or off the market for the time being. Buy order fillers are also taking quite a hefty hit due to this manipulation.

--

This is an announcement to all those with a supply of Hydrogen Isotopes at Jita: Stop selling them for now

The sell price for Caldari Fuel Block is roughly 19,000 ISK at Jita
The sell price for Amarr Fuel Block is roughly 18,700 ISK at Jita
The sell price for Minmatar Fuel Block is roughly 17,850 ISK at Jita

This means Minmatar Fuel Blocks at Jita has a value of roughly 94% compared to Caldari fuel and Amarr fuel.

The sell price for Nitrogen Isotopes is roughly 1,120 ISK at Jita
The sell price for Helium Isotopes is roughly 1,120 ISK at Jita
The sell price for Hydrogen Isotopes is roughly 820 ISK at Jita

This means Hydrogen Isotopes at Jita has a value of roughly 73% compared to Nitrogen Isotopes and Helium Isotopes.

In order for Hydrogen Isotopes to be of the same proportional value to the others, they would have to sell for roughly 230 ISK more (820 ISK ---> 1,050 ISK) to equate.

So why are the prices so low? Market manipulation. If we look back at the Hydrogen Isotopes page, we will notice someone with two sell orders of 17,000,000 and 11,000,000 respectively. Each day I have observed this player use these sell orders to lower the price slightly. He will generally adjust his prices by about 0.50 ISK, lowering the overall price by 1-2 ISK overall by days end. Once other players start selling for less than him he rarely will match their orders, only doing so when seeking to lower the price again.

Full credit to this player; he's probably buying up mats and producing Minmatar Fuel Blocks for a crazy profit. Unfortunately for him though, someone caught on and decided to make a thread about it.

Please spread the word around to anyone you know who's invested in the Hydrogen Isotopes, as not too many people read the forums much less this section.

You can take this as the official confirmation that Goonswarm is manipulating Minmatar isotope prices in preparation for the next war (Naglfar doctrine is a GO). Turn it all into fuel blocks and they won't be able to use it as jump fuel.

Funny, smartest, pretty and relevant. Pick 3.

If you think Myanna's bad, you must have missed Larkonis.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

He's trying to expose a larger conspiracy to control prices in Eve by the Illuminati. That's why he had to make a character.

Too bad they probably have his IP address and tracking him down now.

Edit: Oh now that I know they're going to get me too! Nice knowing everyone. Cry

Hey, you're the guy that keeps manipulating the price of (item redacted) and (item redacted) upward in Sinq Laison.

Quoting for truth. Minmatar carriers are complete ass as they have no racial tank nor damage bonus (they are decent at reping poses, but they are ass in an actual capital engagement). Nags have good alpha but **** dps.

Minmatar control towers do not have a silo bounus so they are never used as mining poses, and they do not have as good CPU as caldari so they are never used as reaction poses. They also do not have enough powergrid to be use as capital production poses. The only use left (and they are pretty good at it due to arty batteries being amazing) is as a deathstar. This is also why only Minmatar larges sell at all (smalls and mediums have very little market movement).
