I will agree. Reprocessing and selling minerals is the most expedient way to make a profit....and also less time consuming than manufacturing T1 components.

However, one must not forget that manufacturing T2 components, especially T2 ammo is also very rewarding as far as profit goes.

But when I am lazy and just want to make good isk with not too much effort, I just stick to selling my reprocessed salvage items to ore and sell directly on market.

@mortdigo Are the ship editor allows Modells like Warhammer 40k Gothic fleet to construct.

Thank you very much.

Just goes to show you...selling minerals and salvage in a trade hub is worth more than calculation time, tying up your manufacturing slots, and even bothering with making and selling almost anything. Since I've started selling all minerals and processing anything worth under 1 million ISK, I've doubled my ISK per time played.

Did you calculate the time needed to acquire the blueprint and the cost of the print?

[mortdigo]

Thanks for the correction. Yep, I did have a slip of the tongue. It was early morning when I made this vid...brain was still lukewarm.

Also, 1K actually equals 1024.

The unit K comes for the pc industry and programming where it is used ina binary sense. Only later on did K come to be used as 1000.

yep, there's a piece'a useless info for the day

cheers

@mortdigo

1k = 1 kilo

The kilo prefix is derived from the Greek word χίλιοι (chilioi), meaning thousand. It was originally adopted by Antoine Lavoisier and his group in 1795, and introduced into the metric system in France with its establishment in 1799.

Hi MultiStampe

Since we are in the EVE online pc community, i used k in the binary (for computer geeks) as opposed to the metric sense.

Computer data and file size is normally measured in binary code using the binary number system (counted by factors of two 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, etc). The nearest binary number to 1,000 is 2^10 or 1,024; thus 1,024 bytes was named a Kilobyte. So, although a metric "kilo" equals 1,000 , a binary "Kilo" equals 1,024 (e.g. one Kilobyte = 1,024 bytes).

@mortdigo that explanation gave me wood

[4ThomasAllan]

@mortdigo what would life be without trivia...

[MrAwsome514]

@4ThomasAllan One epically boreing party.

[MrAwsome514]

@mortdigo K is short for kilo which comes from latin where it meant 1000. Latin became a dead language beck when computers would have been thought to be magic.

[mortdigo]

@MrAwsome514 Me thinks with the increase in demon possessed peoples speaking in Latin...Latin may very well be making a comeback

[Thestommy]

You're saying 220 thousand K, which is 220 million, 1K = 1000... just letting you know :P

[shgjlsfg]

damn, i didnt know this great website existed till now. thanks alot

[funkmasterfletch08]

i built 5 drakes once from a 5 million isk BP copy, then i turned around and sold them all for 50 million each. hoorah for profits!

[OCesarruivo]

my net is super fast woh can this be thy most problebi espiin-me

[GhostKryst]

Loving your accent.

[salatauk]

[piaoro]

i need to be eating biltong while watching this.

[Eurobunneh]

Nice lil tutorial, never knew about the eve markets site. You can has cookie :)

[eoyn]

By the way, is there an SA Corp in Eve?

[eoyn]

South African Eve player FTW

[mortdigo]

Hi Eoyn,

I'm living in Canada for the past decade now. Its nice to know that I havent lost my SA accent :)

I wake up everymorning at 3am and practice my accent in front of the mirror so that i preserve it ;-)

cheers

[mortdigo]

Thank you for the compliment :)

Also, this is a vid made by a "noob" for "noobs". I made this vid because I was too annoyed at seeing so many dirt cheap ships on the market; and I felt guilty making a huge profit from simply buying the dirt cheap ships and reprocessing to get more value in ore than the price I bought it for...lol

[frozencanadian]

Not bad at all :D gj

Keep using researched bpc's until you and your corp are able to build a bank of them up. This becomes incredibly important with manufacture in eve.

-> also since you already know of eve markets another good place to look for overall eve sales trends if you haven't yet is the eve quarterly reports. Gives you an idea of some items to go do cost analysis on.
