I am looking to strip this character down to alpha status due to the fact I do not want to sell her. She is close to 70m sp so it would take aproximately 130 extractors to get all the sp, but they are running around 276m each so total would be around 36.2b and selling them all would net me around 82.3b for a profit of somewhere around 46b isk. To me, these are huge sums that boggle my mind.

I would have two options in doing this:

1) Sell my Tengu and use that for the first extractor and then sell the injector to purchase more extractors, in order to sell more injectors and repeat until she is at 5m sp. This is a viable option but will take quite a bit of time due to waiting for the injectors to sell so I can purchase more extractors.

2) Get a loan for 36b from someone so I can mass purchase the extractors, then do it all in one sitting. That means I would have about 130 injectors that I could sell and then repay the loan with a certain percent of interest agreed upon by both of us. The problem with this is I do not have 36b worth of collateral to cover and I have never done any loan before. If I dump everything, I could probably get a billion maybe.

So I am here asking the experts their opinion. There is a third option of selling her on the bazaar but I really would like to avoid that if possible. I do want to keep her but if that is what I have to do so I can get isk, then I will but it is last resort.

Option 1.

Just sell the first 5-10 direct to buy orders to get the ISK and then use sell orders.

It's no problem, just get a friend to contract you an extractor for the Tengu, then contract more extractors for injectors as you go along. That would be faster, as long as you can agree on prices.

If you don't have someone, I will do it for you :)

The spread for injector prices in Perimeter is minimal, don't bother selling via sell orders.

Will be sending you a mail to talk about this further to see if it is feasable. I don't have friends in Eve, I am a lone wolf...rawr?

It won't take as long as you think. Each time you sell the injectors you can buy twice as many extractors, so the number of 'cycles' to reach 130 is not that large (8 cycles). Buy one extractor and sell the injector straight to buy orders for a cost of about 6mil. You now have enough to buy 2 extractors. Dump the two injectors straight to buys for a 12mil cost and buy four extractors. Dump again for 24 mil and buy 8. Your total cost so far is 40mil of lost profit. Now, as you fill up an extractor put it on sell orders. By the time you have filled up all 8 at least one will have sold allowing you to keep the whole sorry business turning over. If you find your sells stalling just list them at 3mil under the headline price and they'll shift sharpish at a trivial cost to you.
