An `Unverified` Advantage? NyxxiPoo
Those, riddled with the lack of patience, could very well be out of a very lucrative business. Throughout this week, the Game Forum has been plastered with complaints that points just aren't being verified in an acceptable amount of time by BSF2000. While the impatient complain, the patient may be making a lot of money!

How, you ask? Well let's look at some easy statistics. On Saturday, April 18th, 2008 at 9:20AM Bootleggers time, players were selling unverified points each for $100,000. This is anywhere between $90,000 to $110,000 cheaper than verified ones. So where does your patience come into play?

Those willing to be a bit patient could easily buy those point in batches (off the impatient), wait until BSF2000 verifies them, and resell them for the verified points going price of $190,000-$220,000 each!

With a little math calculation, if a player buys 100 unverified points at the going rate of $100,000, he/she is spending a total of $10,000,000. When those unverified points turn verified, he can then sell the same batch for (at the least) $190,000 each, giving him $19,000,000. This, in turn, gives him a $9,000,000 profit when he is selling the verified points at the lowest rate per point. However, if he/she wants to be a bit more lucrative, he would sell the points for the high of $220,000 per point, giving him a profit of $11,000,000!

Patience seems to pay off, but many are probably wondering now about the exploiters. To be honest, this seems to be an ongoing problem that daunts the minds of each and every player who is in the business of buying and selling points (unverified to verified). However, this is a chance to will have to be faced with if you are in the business of making a quick (or maybe not so quick-- depending on when BSF2000 verifies the points) buck.

Patience is a virtue, and could be great money-making strategy.
