Greetings capsuleers,

I am offering a 1.25 million bounty for each Smuggler Lockbox, up to a total maximum of 3.200 units, that have been recovered from the Smuggler Hidouts. I will accept private contracts anywhere within high security space that can also be reached via high security space. If people prefer to remain unknown, personal trade is also possible.

I shall keep this topic updated with how many units of Smuggler Lockbox have been received.

Regards,

DutchGunner

Im actually curious as to why one would pay more for these items than average? Is there more to them than meets the eye?

It’s ARC. Research is kind of their “thing.” They’ll be working on that exact question, probably.

This is something that is being done on a personal note, not as an official ARC initiative. If it had been, there would have been a different header and I would be including my ARC position with each reply.

If your going to try to convince someone to give it to you instead of everyone else, you have to offer more.

Seems simple to me.

Enough units have been received to complete the second batch. I am now accepting a third batch of contracts for a total of 3.200 units. The price is still 1.25 million isk per unit.

Hm. Acqusitions and research operations like this really do seem better executed as a coalition activity.

Curious.

Due to a large number of contracts, the total of 3.200 units have been exceeded. All contracts that met the requirements have been accepted and once the collecting and processing is done, more information will be shared.

A total of 14.000 Smuggler Lockboxes have been collected. Below is the overview of contributions of indidividual capsuleers and/or corporations. I have not included the results of my own efforts of fighting the smugglers.

| Capsuleer | Corporation | Alliance | Amount |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Bartolovic | Drop Bears Club | | 3.200 |
| Duke Shasta | Dark Wolf Legion | | 3.162 |
| Dallas Black | Resilience. | The Initiative. | 1.469 |
| Ibrahim Tash-Murkon | Itsukame-Zainou Hyperspatial Inquiries Ltd. | Arataka Research Consortium | 1.381 |
| | Drifter Society | | 1.000 |
| Alexia Prior | The Gold-Flecked Stars | | 891 |
| Gallia Voltaire | Profit and Loss | | 515 |
| BsCx | Stromberg Erze GmbH | | 460 |
| Arjunan | Santos de la Espada | | 380 |
| Ya’akov Kadosh | Offshore Shell Corporation | | 346 |
| Tannhauser Nseri | MGNation | | 281 |
| Tension Travis | Z5-x02E07F Kultures | Xagenic Freymvork | 207 |
| Krye Persat | KarmaFleet | Goonswarm Federation | 164 |
| Altaen | SoE Roughriders | Electus Matari | 141 |
| Kitai Kyo | Foxholers | Outfoxed | 120 |
| Zurion Issir | Subsidy H.R.S. | Xagenic Freymvork | 17 |
| Lou Lingg | BreadFleet | Triglavian Outlaws and Sobornost Troika | 9 |

From the 14.000 collected Smuggler Lockboxes, 12.500 units have been handed over to the Caldari Navy. In addition to the Smuggler Lockbox, I would also like to hand over 2 reports and a Boobook shuttle blueprint that I recovered while fighting the smugglers. I will await confirmation on who I should contract the reports and blueprint to.

The remaining 1.500 Smuggler Lockboxes will be handed over to the Arataka Research Consortium. I will leave it up to ARC to decide what to do with those when the security of the lockboxes can be cracked.
