Would you pay for a service that ran skill books or the like for 18 -25 jumps out of Jita at x3 the cost of the item and $275k per system there with another $275k back for any 0.4 and under?

Example: $2.5 mil skill book would = $7.5 mil
18 systems out would = $4.95 mil
And if 6 systems were hostile the that would = $1.65 mil

So $14.1 mill. Not bad for an hour of work. I could say when I'd be there, you could give the money and then I could give you the drop off bookmark while I'm safely already 3 systems away.

With Interceptor, cloaking, MWD and related skills maxed out, it should be more or less safe.

so instead of payment 2.5m for a skillbook. it pay 14m++

I don't think there is a big enough market for people that lazy. most people stock up on skills they can train and ask mates and the odd guy who goes to jita to pick up the rest. I doubt u will get much business

The risk is not there when hauling skillbooks, so i would not pay your prices. You can use a covert ops and do it super safe. (Someone else might of course)

Expand your business to any type cargo. For an NPC 0.0 station run i usually pay 20-30%.
40m collateral 10-15m reward.
A blockade runner, viator anyways, can hold 7700 m3 or so.
Dealing with gatecamps and having bookmarks between long warp points is a must and should be rewarded.

Maybe adjust prices depending on the m3 it takes as well.
