Burned logic circuits and general null supply

 On my Null sec industry characters I build a lot of rigs. Well I do in high as well, but in Null I frequently face a problem. Not with profitability or revenue (these things are typically easier than in Jita) but with supply of raw materials. Specifically MJ- never has enough Burned Logic Circuits. These are a material that comes from Relic sites I believe, so should be something null has in abundance, but I find myself frequently limited in options because of lack of supply. 

Up to this point I had resisted doing much about it. Bringing in more is something my industry chars don't necessarily have the money for (at least to be tied up for potentially several days as it is brought in by alliance courier services). I do, however, have a trade character in MJ-. And bringing the circuits in is profitable in and of itself. So I bought 50,000 Burned logic circuits on my Jita Trade char, contracted to my Null trader and had them shipped in. Putting them on the market for a small profit. 

This keeps my 2 ventures still sort of pure, this is a trade transaction that will be profitable whoever buys it. It also creates a supply of a material I need for industry at a price that is profitable for me to make rigs with. Win-win really.

There are a world of efficiencies like this I could take advantage of, which is why when I finish up my targets I intend to combine both ventures into a "money making" goliath and see where I can leverage things like this. For now though I think there are probably more places I can do things like this to help myself, but I'll take them as they come.

  1. you have convinced me to try manufacturing again. So giving it another shot. Spreadsheets, or sorts, are now set up. Your blog, the Excel Addin and the Oz Show interview with Sir Smashalot has given me the encouragement to see if i can make it work.
