I daresay there’s far more fully researched blueprints out there than there are collectors prepared to buy them.
And that’s a pretty flippant response when we’re talking about something that will comprehensively wreck the playstyle and asset base of a significant chunk of the playerbase.
Do you understand how long it takes, and how much it costs, to research a Battleship or Capital BPO all the way to 10/20? Capital Parts BPOs? Nevermind a Titan BPO. We’re talking years here. Not a month or two like for a frigate BPO. Literally years.
I have friends in the ship production game. Their blueprint collections are worth many hundreds of billions of ISK.
And let’s not even talk about T2 BPOs. Those things can trade hands for a couple hundred billion a pop.
