I'm about the same, Quafe Sniper Rifle, Quafe Saga, Quafe Combat Rifle and two Serpentis SKINs. Is CCP trying to tell me something? Should I become a Serpentis Gallente Pirate with an affection for Quafe? I'm glad to see this though, this reaffirms my belief that opening them up one by one really doesn't change anything too much. I was opening them 10 at a time. Easier to write things down that way, and according to an old blue-post (that I'm not even going to bother trying to find) opening 10 at a time gives an extra chance at 'something good'.
yea i remember that post, CCP Rattati commented something like 'opening 10 at a time increases your chances of getting a unique item,' out of 110 boxes opened ten at a time and you get one bpo looks to me like the odds aren't exactly in our favour, i thought players were awarded for their patience? if i didn't buy aurum i'd guess it would take around 10 weeks to save 110 keys. looking at these stats i think CCP should reconsider what unique items are, removed any items that are not advanced, pro or officer at least because getting 3 LAV's in a box isn't funny, getting 1x quafe heavy missile turret isn't everyone's cup of tea, looking at the list of items some are worth a fair amount of isk but i would of thought that you would get 3 bpo's at least, this just shows that it's completely random whether you open one at a time or 100 at once.

actually scratch that. a few people worked out that 1x Aur is equal to around 1000 - 2000isk,
so going cheap side 6 strong boxes and keys would cost 6 million+ isk if sold for isk at a vendor at least. strongboxes are a little extra thing we get i know but who here has opened a strongbox and gotten an item worth around 1 million isk each and every time? encrypted keys are not worth anywhere near the amount of isk they ask for and should be slashed in half aurum wise, as a daily win from missions there great but when people buy them you're instantly getting ripped.
maybe concider having gold strongboxes that definatly have a unique item and require a standard key to open

The caldari gets the laser rifle and the gallente commando bpo.
The minmatar gets a sniper rifle, and a kaalakiota scout.
The amarr gets a forge gun.
The gallente gets a rail rifle and a combat rifle and a serpentis medium skin.
It's like aaaaaagh why do you do this to me!
my first bpo was a quafe forge gun, it would cost around 700,000 sp at least to just use it, then i got the laser rifle. tried it a bit but kept getting owned, same story with the combat rifle, the only bpo i have that i use daily is the LAV, as sad as it is my favourite bpo, guarantee i get a sodding mass driver next or a freaking shotgun, i would love a swarm or rail rifle, but i have more chance of STF begging me to return than getting them
