loes!
Just wondering really...

Can you build secure containers yourself or do they *have* to be purchased?

*If* we can make them there could be a very lucrative market in 0.0

Well, if we can fill a freighter full of 'em ... *lightbulb goes on*

*lightbulb blows up*
You can't jet stuff from Freighters can you?

Cheers!

They're selling for about 1m in Tycho and Marge :) (or at least they were a couple of days back) Would it be worth buying some and undercutting the market while still making a hefty profit as they're invaluable at POS's?

Hmm, you'd need a freighter to do it but an obelisk with freighter lvl 4 will end up with 900k m3 cargo which will fit 300 secure containers, at about 700k profit each thats 210 mil isk per run.

And you can even cart stuff down in the cans too so you can still cart the normal full load!

Hell, you'll get 270k bonus in there!

I do wonders if there is that kind of amount on the market though, and what the brokerage fees would to do the income. Otherwise, I'd say "Yeah, ride the market for all she's worth!"

Ma Talune from ISSL has been stocking limited amounts in the outposts, and they do sell fairly quickly. Don't forget medium cans as well - quite a lot of people want those.

If you want to do a freighter run, 5chedule a PvP Op (don't mention the freighter though) and get at least 5 5punkers and Pete online in ZX. There's some demand for ops at the moment so we could probably make the run profitable for the corp by doing a job. Also got a load of fernite to move still.

You know, there's a thread down there titled how the POS chain works. I'd suggest giving that a look 8)

Just a thought... :P

See point 5. Profit.

Way ahead of ya! :P

I assume you can as there are freighter cans which would be useless otherwise...
