...In fact I only have 1 of each which came to roughly 240k aurum in refunds.
I decided I would rather keep them as they are quite good for saving isk on fits. But CCP was definitely going to refund them.
So what to do...
I did know a lot of people had stacks and stacks of them and they was going to make a lot of aurum, and I thought they can go kitten themselves lol.
Decided to troll them and CCP by putting the word out I had 19 mills worth.
I knew CCP would take the bait and never let anyone get that much aurum, but that they also must refund the aurum prices if they removed them. So the only solution was to not remove them at all.
Meaning I get to keep my BPOs and all the kittens with stacks and stacks of them get kittened.

I'm pretty sure CCP knew ahead of time you didn't spend $9.5k on aurum packs. |

CCP knows how many you had. They put up precise stats of every item used a while back, so they know what you have & haven't bought. Relative to the prices of items on the market, 19mil wouldn't have been any more dramatic than 1mil.
I'd be a little more reluctant to pat yourself on the back. |

Yeah... they were probably never going to refund them. They require no skill investment and therefore won't be effected by any changes. |

In January bpos cost 20/30/40/50 aurum, now ones that cost 50 aurum are valued on market as 11,000 aurum, that's how he would have made 19 mil (had he not been tellin bs). |

Even if they checked my account, I still successfully trolled them and made them think that it was possible some people really did have many many stacks of these items and were going to make a tidy profit.
My main motivation was I wanted to keep the single BPOs I had. Kittening the people standing to make a gigantic aurum return on their investments was just an evil bonus.  |

They were never going to refund them, all you did was make yourself their scapegoat 
Not that they needed one anyway,, but people were being dumb. |
