Greetings Architects,

I am on Radiant, and have been getting conflicting info on the pricing of harvesters. Some people tell me that heavy harvesters (min,flora,chem, etc with BER10) go for 150k. But then others tell me that heavies go for 100k for mineral, 125k for flora, and 90k for chem. I'd like to know how mucheveryone sellstheir heavy harvesters for. Please include theBER on those harvesters for comparison. I'd appreciate anyinput you could offer on the issue.

Myself, I treid using a direct CPU formula, of around 3 each to remain competitive, at least pre-patch. I still haevn't adjusted the values to accomodate the new variances, but perhaps I can help out by telling you what I had before.

Medium mineral and water 11k

Medium gas, chem, flora 36k

Large water 33k

Any other large harv 100k

I charge 2000 credits per rate of extraction. So a mineral mining installation with rate of 7 is 14k.

I'll take 100 BER-13 Heavy Mineral Harvs plz

Well I set my prices based upon the Base Extraction Rate. I sell mine at the following:

Mineral (BER 13's) - 175k, (BER 12's) 150k, (BER 11's) 125k, (BER 10's) 115k, (BER 9's) 100k
Chem (BER 12's) - 165k, (BER 11's) 145k, (BER 10's)115k, (BER 9's) 105k, (BER 8's) 95k
Floral (BER 12's) - 165k, (BER 11's) 145k, (BER 10's) 115k, (BER 9's) 105k, (BER 8's) 95k
Gas (BER 12's) - 145k, (BER 11's)125k, (BER 10's) 100k,(BER 9's) 95k, (BER 8's) 90k
Water (BER 12's) - 135k, (BER 11's)115k, (BER 10's) 95k, (BER 9's) 85k, (BER 8's) 70k
Fusions (BER 14's) - 165k, (BER 13's) 125k

As for mediums, its been while since I made them or even be asked to make them. I would also charge for based one the BER. I would most like chare around 55k for a BER 10's, 50k BER 9's and 30k for BER 8 and below.

I know my prices are higher then what most out there, because I use the best materals I can get to make all my parts. As for the Mediums prices I know I'm going to get flamed on it, so go head, you don't have to buy them from me and no I don't fell I'm ripping people off for charging for higher quilty products. I also don't take requests for a curtain BER, how ever it comes out is what I sell it for.
