Those two?
Have you seen or heard about any interest in them? Have you yourself had any interest in them, given the almost complete lack of information from the seller (MA)?
With the almost total lack of information, I'd question if they are even worth 2k Remember the last "LA" on Calypso? The large area between Eudoria and Amathera (sp?)? The market spoke. It was worth not even close to the amount of money MA had expected to "extract" from its customers - and from my understanding MA totally failed to make the connection.
"Investing" in EU like this is purely speculation and gambling nowadays (with the intentional total lack of information), so I'd be surprised if more than these two "stables" will bring in even 20k PED.
Seriously, on something as "shaky" as EU you'd expect no more than 3 years ROI, if even that. How in the hell are you expected to earn 20k PED from something MA most likely won't ever support once they sold the things (judging by history)?
Had MA/Calypso (i.e. Kim) bothered to explain, in detail, both plan and what to expect in terms of implementation (and when), including payment from MA to customers when MA fails to deliver (by history, they will), things could possibly be a little different. But as it stands now? Even if I had 2 million PED fluid I wouldn't bid 20k on one of these likely-unused-to-be-placeholders-for-functionality, and so far it seems all but two persons in EU agree.
<hat=tinfoil on>Besides, is there any indication that the two having placed bids aren't MA or Calypso avatars?</hat>
Id' love to be proven wrong, but if history is an indicator...
