As title says, Mastodon T2 BPO is up for an auction. BPO is maxed out ME10 PE 20. Screen: Mastodon T2 BPO Not showing correct numbers for some reason - manufacturing requirements in POS array are 12% lower (likely 10% ME + 2% array) and manufacturing time is just below 24h

Auction ends: 13.1.2016 11:00 EVE time (30 days from now)
Starting bid: 60b
Reserve: 60b
Buyout: 80b
Sniper rule: 15 min

Profit calculations:
-36 single run copies when copying in POS per month
-roughly 110M ISK worth of materials and taxes needed to build 1 hull in POS (when you build components as well)
-long term average Jita sell price around 145M ISK
-monthly profit around 1.26 b ISK
-expect lower profit when buying components off market (do your own calculations)

Lowball offers will be treated as free bumps.

I would like to remind you that to attack high sec POS, you need to wardec the corp first. And defender has got full 24 hours to press one button, cancel the job (you got BPO back and loose mats - with copying job the mats are almost free) and put that BPO anywhere else...station for example. Not a big deal really.

The "I don't own a T2 BPO, so I'll troll this guy" hatred is strong in this thread.

I dont really care what do you do with that BPO - you can keep it in your hangar, copy in POS or just haul around Jita in your rifter, whatever. Point is I am the one selling it and you can buy it ! Do your own profit calculations if you want to, but this is a piece of EVEs history that actually generates pretty nice profit, so place your bids! & daily bump Smile

if you want to be that guy, babysitting your BPO daily with no day off for party, holidays, work, girlfriend, friends, school, being sick or whatever you do besides eve - yeah, probably you can have that profit.

I just wanted to say, that no sane person who has still left a little bit of life, would put T2 BPO into a POS, which makes such profit calculation kind of joke.

....since EVE Gate introduction, you can actually check your ingame mails throught webpage, which means you can do that over your cell phone, tablet or whatever you have got that can access internet. We all know pretty much anything with display can do that these days. It takes literally few seconds to check for wardec. You can for sure have several girlfriends, party from dusk till dawn and still check for wardec. I actually think there might be even an API that can check for wardecs these days for you, meaning with proper script you might receive wardec confirmation to your RL mail, cell phone, whatever - if you really need it. But hey, if you really cant afford to check at least EVE mail once a day, you should perhaps try something else. Putting BPO inside high sec POS is 100% secure if you can keep an eye out for wardecs. It is really far more dangerous to haul materials to/from Jita.

Also, 30b is too low for me. I wont sell it that cheap. Thanks for bump tho

the question is not if you can, but rather if you want to have this kind of duty day for day, every day - and the risk of getting your 50b BPO blown up in the one day you missed to watch your stuff - or losing 3b worth of minerals on aborted job just because someone was funny to pay 50m of a wardec fee, negating 3 months of profit and effort monitoring your POS.
If I knew there is a BPO in POS I would even wardec you every 2 weeks, just for teh lulz..

Theres no reason to manufacture the BPO in POS. Copying is faster than manufacturing = its better to copy and manufacture from copies. And when copying, cancelling the copy job means you lose handful of data sheets and few PI parts. You wont loose any minerals or components this way, at worst you waste some copy time. meh

You sir seem to not understand how r&d and manufacturing works these days at all.

Also you can for sure make profit from the BPO even in NPC station and sell the copies, no manufacturing involved at all and you just send the job in once per month. But thats not how you make profit. There are no free ISK in EVE. You need to think a bit and spend some time.

I am glad we agreed that putting BPO in high sec POS is not a big risk at all for people that log in on regular basis. For people doing a lot of r&d and manufacturing daily logons are pretty much nessesary anyway to deliver jobs and send new ones.

...still looking for decent offers !

The roi of 3,9 years seems on par with what it always used to be. But, the plex prices are still on a rise Pirate

If relativity equals time plus momentum, what equals relativity, if the momentum is minus to the time?

no, we didn't agree.
Furthermore, we arent speaking about "regular basis" but "daily". I say noone is capable of performing this tedious task for an extended period of time reliably - you get tired, and then you lose your tower at some point because you became too negligent and careless. Leaving such an expensive asset in a POS lab relying on your endurance of doing such stupid, repetitive and excessively boring activities is an exceptionally dumb idea IMO.
Not to mention situations when you are suddenly unable to bother for several days due to whatever reasons.

Well obviously we both have very different opinions on POS safety and dedication to playing EVE. I do not force anyone to use POS. CCP does. If you arent using POS for industry and research, then you are most likely killing your profit on most items and thats dumb. Not just on T2 BPOs, but on everything. POS gives out such huge bonuses that it cannot be just neglected. You can use NPC stations but the time when it was reasonable is long gone. POS gives out material reduction and massive time reduction. POS lowers your installation fee. POS can be attaced and destroyed, but try to blow up large tower in high sec with shield hardeners and ton of ECM...you need dedicated battleship fleet with reasonably skilled players and hours of time to do that. Noone will attack something like that unless you seriously **** them off, because that is boring.

TL;DR: If someone reading this does not want to use POS, please feel free to calculate your own profit numbers and decide on your own. Just dont spam this thread with your opinions about spending free time - noone cares.

no, what I'm saying is that you shouldnt delude people into operating a POS with a 50b asset inside it under wrong assumption, you cannot adhere (ofc except individuals who control their lives at 100%).

According to my calculation this BPO makes riskless 750m profit per month, in NPC station, where it belongs. So 60b might be a bit high but 40b is a good call IMO, would bid if I had that ISK liquid.

On a side note,
1) even a large tower can be killed easily with enough people involved, not a big deal, really. False sense of security from having a large tower shouldnt be an argument for anything at all, so please. This is newbie way of thinking, as experienced player you should know that anything can get blown up, mostly in at least comfortable moment for you. Having said that and the fact that its coming from someone who is in possesion of such high valued asset, leads here again to the only conclusion of you attempting to delude people into trouble - I guess primarily to inflate potential profits from this BPO pushing its price to a desirable level.
2) A POS costs ISK in form of fuel (especially a large one), which you have to calculate against the increased profit from it - balance which will most likely end up negative for most people who dont fully utilize it in a proper way unlike lets say medium to big industrial corporations for example.

Again, this is your opinion. I am not pushing or deluding anyone. You can use the BPO in NPC station or double your profit in POS. Thats what I am saying. Of course having a POS just for 1 blueprint is not very reasonable, but my guess is that people buying such expensive asset are already running some sort of industry operation, where they utilize multiple jobs probably on multiple characters i.e. they probably already have a POS and are already using it for regular t1/t2/t3 production so making use of it for 1 more copy job should be a big deal. Yes, POS can get blown up. As a person running multiple POSs over years in several corps in high sec/low sec/ 0.0 / wh I can say I havent lost a single POS in high sec.
You should also check out and warp around high sec moons, especially around trade hubs. You can easily find out that it is actually very hard to find a moons spot that is free - most moons have got POSs running around them. That seems to be a main argument against your thinking - high sec is full of POSs that are being used and my bet is many of them are actually used for T2 BPO copying/production. If you feel like popping high sec POS is easy, I wonder why you dont go for it and start killing all the hundreds towers that are all around, full of juicy stuff...Roll

I think you miss the most important point here. Anybody rich enough and willing to buy a T2 BPO, is a lazy bastard.
Because if not, where is the reason to buy it?
If "work" isn't important for you, you can simply invent Mastodons (or any other better selling ship). The price difference between the building costs for an M10 and M5 Mastodon is 7-8mil (including invention costs). You simply invent 1/3 more and you have thesame profit. And you could build all at a pos without risk.
And if we are talking about profit margin, for me (i know lazy) the profit per slot is also important. You need additional 1,8 Slots for T2 Comps / T1 Ship. So 2,8 Slots/month to prod the Mastodon nonstop. Most Module BPOs and also some Ship BPOs need less Slots/month.
And again, if "work" isn't important, a slot/month only cost 40mil (1 account = 1200mil / 30 Slots = 40 mil) and you could completely ignore that as long as youre making more isk / slot / month.

In my opinion these are the reasons why many ship bpos are sold and why they aren't as expensive anymore like in the good old times with negative ME.


But @Robert Caldera i don't think it is necessary to inform everybody about the profit margin :-). If a bidder is not able to check that by himself, he deserves what he gets.
