couse of them resources prices have been up the roof.



I just made it plain and simple for myself.....cost of 1 resrouce is over 3.5 c pr U i don't purches it.



there are allways some ppl out there that are selling resources for a resonable price and don't want all you blood at the same time.

I've actually been asking achitect grinders to sell ME the stuff they are making so I can sell it on my vendors. I prefer to buy it from them directly then haveTHEMsell it forPEANUTS on the bazaar. Of course I amonly referring to things where expermentation isn't a factor such as furniture, statues, etc. This not only saves time and resources but keeps the business from being undersold.


Example: I've been seeing statuesselling at the bazaar for 3k! I'm sorry, but thatis just wrong.Ifthey are going to sell them so low, I am going to buy it and resell it for my normal asking price.In fact, Iwould actually prefer that they know this. So why not eliminate the middle man?

Yes I've seen the statues on the bazaar as well and I've also bought up a few for resale. However, I'm afraid that the grinders will flood the market and exceed the demand for them and/or customers will see one or hear of one for sale at 3k and then decide thats the price they should cost. Oh well, not like I'd expect to have much business on statues anyway.


On the other hand I've seen at least a couple grinders who are wishing to sell walls. I know its more grinding work but it makes them some cash and provides a useful product for us as well.

Ah.. here's a thought.



All those people desperate to grind their way to armoursmith/droid Engineer/Architects etc.. What they need is a complete set of heavy harvs and a fusion. NEW CUSTOMERS..


Now, if they'de just stay off the darned proffesion forums.

Some of them do take that route and I've sold harvesters to one or two who are looking to mine their own resources. However, it seems to me that more often the holo grinders just want to buy the resources. That seemed to cause a supply problem initially but in the long run hopefully it will add to folks in the mining business and therefore give us more customers that way.

Dang, hit tab and it accidentally posted my message while I was editing it.


What I meant to say (in proper english) was: The least we can do is tell the grinders that they can grind statues other than gungan heads.There's a big demand for the small statues.


Pawlin what do you pay for the wall modules?
