Jita Trading Alive and Well in 2025

Speaking of which, hey @Chad_Frostpacker do you remember the good old days when you’ve got a free piece of Tritanium when you’ve boarded your free corvette? Literally free ore and not even had to undock for it! :thinking:

:wink:

I used my cloaking Orca as a base to creatively acquire a C2 wh. I must admit, I do not remember how long it took to gather the PI resources? But I only had to log in every 3 days…

Edit; But the trips up and down the old/new pipes were a blast! Probably why I did it for so long! :laughing:

What frosty does really remember is that time Sargon would find targets in 0.9 systems for frosty to shoot.

Would Sargon like to return back to us?

Btw can’t you find your own targets to shoot in 0.9 systems (and beyond)? :thinking:

I heard some of them might even drop 4500 PLEX or such. :wink:

Got stuck with $100mil+ expired boosters. Another lesson learned. Still made 1.3+bil to keep my explorer ratter kll kll main chasing wormholes and anti-testosterones.

might try my luck at pvp after 11 years avoiding it. figure most are dumber than me at this point.

20 ISK / DAY seems LOW.

Controlling 8 ‘major’ Jita markets today … (Sunday). Hate combat/explore during weekends. So I trade Jita to pay for my mistakes. Not bragging. worked on wall street for 4 decades.

gives me the balls to build a fleet of Vexor Navy Issue pimps.

bow down to those you serve.
you’re going to get what you deserve.

The in-game market is rigged in favor of people who flip items for profit

Burn Jita… Again!

If that is true, I am really missing out, been trying to do that for a long time. Can you cite examples?

With the average market taxes of 10% or more one needs to buy well below a 20% margin to show profit. When one sells any goods immediately, one ends up screwing people over who are selling at or below the average and reduce the average market price.

If one buys very low at another station and sell high in another, then one has transportation cost and loss from piracy. I must be missing out on some hidden item I am failing to trade. Even mining costs me time.

Have fun!

You can buy practically any items in Jita at average price and then put them up for 100% higher or more and then just wait. The listing fee makes it so producers will use small sell orders and the result is that eventually supply will run out briefly and your order is filled. You are welcome.

For example Optimal Range Script, you buy a thousand at 25k and then relist them for 100k or more and wait. The listing fee has rigged the market in your favor as explained above and your profit will be almost 100M. This item just spiked tho so its probably going to be some months before it does it again. Good luck.

Chart

Pick any random item and you will notice what im talking about

Note these charts are from Jita and thats the average price. The high of the spikes are so large that it breaks the chart when you enable it.

Example

Slight off topic: I wonder what the purpose of CCPs economic team is.

I stopped paying. CCP got what they deserved.

But Zaera didn’t , she deserves a Gucci handbag

:face_with_rolling_eyes:

I would like to manufacture my own handbags out of the hundreds of frozen corpuses I have in storage waiting for the day CCP fulfills its April Fools promise! :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing:
