Why is it that BPO suits, equipment, modules, and weaponry are worth so little when it comes to resale value? I'm just curious to know the reasoning behind it. Don't you think it should be worth at least slightly more than how low they are now? I mean 5k to 20k aurem and sometimes even more being reduced to a value of a couple thousand isk seems a bit.. eh.
I'm pretty plain.

(up to 50% with jara and loyalty rank 15)

It's so people don't do something stupid, like sell them to the NPC vendor. If we get an actual players market (in Dust or in Legion if stuff transfers) BPO's are going to be worth more than CCP ever would be willing to give. Unless of course they change them to work like they do in EVE; still probably would be worth quite a bit more than what CCP would give.
Just another bunch of dipshits.

BPO's are likely just going to be skins. Which, as far as value goes, is really really bad. Look at what 10 dollars gets in League of Legends in regards to skins to what it gets in DUST. Even worse, the Dren Mercenary packs. I did not spend 100 dollars for some red colored skins :-(
But back on topic: my guess is that BPO's sell so poorly is that CCP didn't expect anyone to want to do it. Why figure out a price for something that lasts forever when you can just make it so stupendously stupid to sell?

I was hoping that when we first got the market thing that I could sell my BPO duplicates off for a handsome amount of isk. I mean I was only expecting a few million or something but sheett....
900 isk for a Toxin SMG BPO? Yea I think I will just hang on to it. I have barely even used the sell to market as the prices are so under-par and salvage rates are so low :(
CCP could really make something out of the salvage system. Make Salvage a way to gain more isk in battles, drop more loot per match.

They did say that player trading was on the horizon, and this was the reason for the low prices. They warned us before the patch even hit in the devblog and release notes.

bpo's, aura gear and officer weapons only have real value to other players as they cannot be easily obtained by anyone. To vender them would be a waste. Stockpile them and wait for player trading and rake in millions more than their vender price.

Should've bought Kumora and sold them like within the first few days of 1.9. They were worth more back then. I think I got around a few thousand isk for the MLT SMG BPO. Not much, but more than now. |

You should sell your 'Dragonfly' BPO's to the market vendor. Said no one ever.
DUST 514 Is the first FPS I played actively for the PS3 and is my favorite FPS to this very day. :)
