Is 90k a decent price for rate 10 BER medium minerals?
Too high/low?
I had a run of them so got 19 sitting on the vendor, but not sure about the price.
Thanks in advance!

That would probably be on the high side for most servers. But medium mineral pricing ranges all over the place and what matters most is the pricing range for your specific server. The only price that is "too high" is the one that nobody will pay but you might get some complaints from customers if you're in the high range for your market.

I would say that sounds a bit on the high side, they are the cheapest to make (these and moistures) and so have traditionally been priced lower than other mediums by archs because of this. I wish this wasn't the case as they are the best seller. I actually used to price them at 50k which was one of the lowest prices on my server, but I used them as a 'loss leader', I regularly sold 10 of these plus 10 of one or more different types all to the same customer, they were never actually at a loss anyway, but they drew customers and the sales Ii got for the other mediums I sold made up for the lower price.

Well, the didn't move all that well at 50k for me. A friend was saying that he's used to seeing them for around 35k. When I lowered my prices, they started moving again but not at a rate that lead me to believe that I'm under cutting anyone.

I've been selling for a long time at 50k on Bria, I have sold hundreds. I had a large customer base and lots of drop by customers. I have moved up (at last) to heavies so I am winding down on mediums. Maybe I had the monopoly on meds, or more likely the medium market is slowing down, probably the whole harvester market.

90k for med mineral? wow..
I know there's big difference between servers, but I didn't think it would be that big.
Normal price what I've seen on infinity for those is 25k-30k and I've seen as low as 15k.
(which still seem to sit in vendor for some time). But if people are willing to pay that,
it's great business for architects.

I can sell them at 80k but it's slow, at 50k they fly out the door..

Yeah BER 10 minerals on Naritus go for 50k and I would recommend not trying to be the cheapest as this will lead to lower profits meaning less money. My advice keep them stocked at all times, people will remember availability more than price cost, if theres none on there and ur advertising Harvesters people get ticked off.
