If you want to pay less, find someone who has just become a master architect. They don't know the pains of making a PA Hall, and may charge you based on resources alone. You can probably grab one close to 250k if you're smart like that.

My price is set at 400k as well. But I shutter at the thought of making one. I hate them so much I turn business away more than I accept the commissions.

I just failed 4 times on 10 structure mods using all my tricks and voodoo spells to up my success rate. The idea of pushing the next button on a PA Hall gives me chest pain.

Make that 450k.

I concur, the pains of going through making the PA Hall aren't worth the effort of churning them out to sell. Resources aren't even the issue at times, unless your taking into account the "extra" resources you'll need because of various factory bugs, or whatever. The main reason, in my opinion, that PA Halls are such a pain is the effort that goes into the individual parts. Whether they be identical, or walls, or whatever.


I think once factories are fixed, and the inventory limit issue resolved, it won't be as bad. But people are still going to cringe when doing the final combine, I would imagine.

I'm on wanderhome and the resource price there is still quite high. I ask for 500k for my PA Halls. I've built and sold about 7 so far. Personally I think its a fair price for all the hassle involved. My factory chews so many resources and I've lost god knows how many power core units. It is just sheer hassle.


Had someone today harrass me because he came from Corbantis ? server and said I should only be charging 250k maximum for guildhalls. I just tried to explain it wasn't worth the hassle doing guildhalls for about 3c a resource (not factoring in a crit fail on the final combine over the course of 10) but he decided it would be more fun to abuse me and call me greedy.


His idea for me was that I should sell guildhalls for 250k and become a creature handler so I could make money selling creatures Didn't sound too tempting an offer to me. Anyway he rounded off by saying his PA were going to mass produce guildhalls for 250k on wanderhome Good luck to them if they are. I just couldn't stand the hassle for 3c a resource, it just isn't worth it.

I charge 500K for mine. My time is too valuable to accept anything less than that.

500 for planet specific, 550 for generic

I charge 400k for a guild hall to be built. You could probably find it for less, but quite frankly they are so painful to build, that I could care less if I ever got a commission for one.
