I'm very curious as to the pricing for various crafting stations, as I've seen the 44.xxx selling for anywhere from 100k to 300k on various servers. What is the formula that most of you use, and what do you consider a fair price for crap stations all the way through the top of the line stations? I realize it varies, but I'd just like some sort of guideline.

HIgh rating stations is one item where the market will vary a lot from server to server. I'd set my price based on the existing market. There are often onlya fewpeople selling high rating stations and they will basically set the price betwen themselves. People are going to be able to get a higher premium out of the very highest rating. If everyone sells 43.x and one guy sells 44.x then the 44.x might fetch 100k while the 43's may only go for 40-50k range. Personally I think anyting >40k for a +40 level station is fair. They do requireaa lot of high quality materials and are a chore to make.
For basic stations with no optional parts and a rating lower than 15, I'd sell them for something in the 5k-10k range. Any arch can make them and they only need 450 units of grind copper. They'll probaly be on the bazaar for 20k just because thats the max price there and people will pay it if theres no alternative.

100k-300k?!?! Wow. My current best is like 76k. My current rates are set up so that even if I reached +45, prices would probably be around 90k.

It took me MONTHS to reach 44.123. I priced mine at 100K. People keep telling me I could get more money, but I think its a fair price. These really move well. I only sell the best stations I can make, because nothing else seems to move.

I'm at 44.386... something. It took me two years to get that.
I sell them for 60k a piece on Tempest.
