Architect Archive

Ever server and even planets on each server has a different market. I wouldn't take credence much from someone giving pricing advice that doesn't know your economy. Ask a Master on your server, someone who plays more then a few hours a day. They can give you the best advice.

Most of the people running a profession as a business are usually older. When I say older I mean middle 20's or so. Becoming a crafter for the purpose of business, versus something just to have fun with, takes patience. So when someone comes along and says your prices are too high, don't take it as an insult to you. Maybe it's an insult to the Architecture class, but not you and your choice of a profession. Its younger folks that seem to have a "want everything now" attitude. Some don't realize they are that way and have yet to grow into patience. They have very little credits and would rather nag you to sell for cheaper then run some more missions.

I have been doing ok as an architect. I try and have more deeds or credits then the week before. I treat every sale differently. Don't panic if someone doesn't buy from you. Many times I have lowered my price only to get a tell from someone later who would have payed more. But I don't have any ore because I just used it to sell for less. Set a price that you would be thrilled to get but plan to go a little lower if the discussions goes that way. People like to get a deal. It may not be as good as if they shopped aorund but if they feel they got you to come down a little it makes them happy.

Back to paragraph one, don't listen to Dalyn. He likes to listen in on other peoples conversations and interject as if his opinion is the best. You know the type at work, school and family reunions. He says the same things over and over in every post. He is too lazy to use a spell checker or backspace or proofread. He is very good at posting non relevant information in a post. If the post is about someone needing to share their success, he turns it into them not being a very good success. If a post is about needing advice, he will make sure it's know that everyone who posts has an invalid point. He is self serving and never constructive.

That was the funiest post yet. If they keept his up they might even convice me that I am important.

( 20 is considered older? My youngest daughter is 21 )

You know the type - the ones who attack the person rather than the argument, because they are incapable of participating in a rational discussion.

By the way, in your second to the last sentence, the word should be "known" not "know". It's been said that over-reliance on spell checkers make people lazy. Not that I agree with that, but people who live in glass houses should not throw stones.
