Well being a cross specialization (master weaponsmith, master Architect) I get some wierd situations that arise.
Player: Can you make me a City Hall and how much?
Me: I can make you one in 3 minutes for 400k once you say go.
Player: I can't afford that for a city Hall. Why are you so much.
Me: (being nice) The reason it takes 3 minutes and cost 400k is because it eats ALOT of resources i don't want to dedicate prior to finding a customer.
Player: Well i'll go find someone else, i don't have 400k to pay you.
I recieve email.
SACK Commodities DS has sold Trandosian Hunting Rifle to <player> for 1200000 credits.
Its just amazing how people will drop 1.2 mil credits for a weapon that costed me a whole500 units of resources to make but a city hall for like 1/3 cost for 400 times the resource usage and i get alot of flack. <and yes, my names are on both vendors, and my names are on those items>

Do WS and Arch go ok together? I was thinking about taking it up the other day. Only thing stopping me is the resrouces really, but I have plenty of good steel. Anyway, how do you like it?

There's nothing really stopping you, but a lot of the resources are quite different.

I was a M Architec way back a little over a year ago and am just now getting back into it.
I use to keep my MA tag offto avoid these conversations and would only sell through vendor and only on occasion do custom jobs.But no matter what they'd track me down and send me tells asking me stupid stuff or trying to low ball me or get me to trade weird stuff like clothingor weapons.
Eventualy I would just keep my AFK sign up and when they'd tell me I had a message saying that I only take orders by e-mail along with the location to my shop.
Didn't get a lot of e-mails from the random tellers, guess it scared them offso that seemed to work for me.
Also I use to get a lot of Noob clothes and CDEF weapons offered to my vendor for high prices like 1-2k when you could get them for 100 creds on bazzar.
you think thats bad? try tailor some time!
customer: i wanna look like a jedi
me: okies, (craft, craft, craft, propose trade)
customer: no wait... i wanna look like a king
me: ok (craft, craft, craft, propose trade)
customer: no no... the OTHER blue
me: fine (craft, craft, craft, propose trade)
customer: actually... how about red?
LOL, tailors everywhere are asking for a 255 color pallete on all clothing... damn... looks like more items to throw on the vendor i guess.
here is one i get as a 4222 architect
customer: can you make houses?
me: depends on the size you want
customer: well i want like a split level with a balcony and windows so i can see the lake on naboo
me: the houses are pre-made as styles and none of them have windows
customer: what?
Me, while flying my master arch tag: Yes I do.

500 creds could buy a basic pair of shoes from a tailor
500 credits could buy them a candle on my vendor...
Them - can you make me a Tat guild hall
Me - I have one on my vendor, would you like the WP?
Them - Can you make me one right now?
Me - there is one on my vendor, you can go pick it up
Them - where is it?
Me - WP sent in mail
Them - It's on Talus...I don't have money to get to Talus
Me - If you don't have money to get to my vendor, you don't have money for a guild hall
Them - Fine, I will get it some place else
Me - good luck finding one for free
