I noticed recently there has been a lot of Tech 2 BPO's on the market.

Obviously people don't sell assets they think will keep going up in price. Has there been some changes announced in regards to Tech 2 BPO or invention?

The changes to industry basically kicked the legs out from under T2 BPOs. Invention is king now and with the narrower profit margins and the greater speed of invention T2 BPOs really cannot compete.

I guess you really did not learn much when you got that economics degree. P

They are probably just the slag of T3 research

I already knew that a long time ago, I was hoping to learn something that I didn't know.

And judging from your attempted "jabs" at me here on this post, and also on the previous post, you seem to care deeply about the fact that I've denounced the Economics major - more so than I care about what you think, or your attempts to sound clever in your posts.

This.

I was watching the stream as they were giving away the prints and it was hilarious to watch the winners show up in the blueprints channel just moments later trying to offload their lottery winnings.

Many good deals were had. The garbage ones that are either severely overpriced or have -ROI are still for sale on contracts and/or on the forums.

Agreed T2 prints are terrible now. Invention is definitely better! Everyone should sell their T2 BPOs before the floor falls out.











WTB: t2 bpos.

Honestly if I were a T2 BPO holder and I was going to "take a break" from the game I would probably sell them off and convert my asset holdings to Plex. At least with Plex you don't need to constantly keep up to date with Eve changes to see if I need to resub and do something quick. T2 BPOs are just too much investment into something that isn't good to vacation from the game with.

So as with the high-end SP characters on the market, as the game numbers decline so increases the market supply of these things.
