Hey there, I'm leveling up in Architect on the Shadowfire server and was wondering if any masters out there would be willing to buy my grinding walls from me? Please list your prices/vendor locations here for me. My in game name is Bangly if you need to get in touch. Thanks a bunch.

You may want to keep the wallsrather than try selling them as you will need themwhen you are an Architect in crafting manystructures (Med&Lg houses, factories, Med&Lg harvesters) and many other structures.
I would think since most Architects already have and frequently use factories, (they would normally crate the structure mods too), it's probably just as easyand cost effective to make theWalls, themselvesas well. Since, both Walland Structure Mods can be made of the worst possible resources,an Architectprobably can make them for under 3k. Also, youmay havemade the walls asindividuals/singles andArchitects would crate them to preserve vital storage space.

Some comments:
1. Post this on your galaxy trade forum. Give it a very precise title like "WTS: wall modules" (when I see "help me out" in a title my initial impression is that the poster will be begging - which you are not).
2. The potential advantage to the Master Architect in getting walls from you is to augment their own resource harvesting. That is, if you mine the ore and metal and make them into walls, that is effectively increasing that architect's resource harvesting capabilities. It doesn't really help them that much in terms of factory time or storage, and in fact it makes storage worse.
3. You want to sell walls to pay your operating costs on your harvesters, so sell some but hold some back for your own building projects also.
4. The price varies as a function of that architect's business model and resources prices on the server. I've bought walls for 8K in the past, now I'm offering 6K.
Good luck.

Ok, normally I send ppl to the server forums and/or trade forums too, so please forgive me this transgression....
I don't know anyone buying walls on Shadowfire these days. The masters that groomed me 8 months ago have all left the profession. I haven't surrendered architect, but I certainly don't do enough to justify buying walls. This may not be true, but It seems to me that this means to earn as you grow has ended.
