I've noticed a considerable decline in business since the announcement that the CURB was moving to TC.


Considerable = 10-15 sales per day to 0-1 sales per day.


This decline is kiicking my@ss, as I've only been an AS for a few months and have barely recovered from my start-up costs. I was curious to see if this or other recent factors have affected anyone else.

I just stopped stocking items so I wouldn't have to worry about this.

just a little noticeable on active wear, though I've had some orders for decorative suits. I mostly suit up guild memebers anyways.
sell the extras.
tentel and ubese been big as well as chitin. Wook is standard, and haven't seen an ithorian in a while.

I can still sell all 25 pieces of Ubese/Chitin armor on the Bazaar on Bria. So, nope.

Like a big dummy I started my business about a month ago, so my business has only gone up. I still only sell 4-5 peices a day.

I just unloaded the last of my stock on to the bazaar yesterday and destroyed my vendors.I will figure out what I am going to do with the game (reknewn/switch profession/keep armorsmith) until after the CURB. Basically all my thingies are paid up for a year and I have enough credits to last me forever. So yes, my business dropped off the last few weeks because I stopped making armor.

My sales have been incredible. I cannot keep Quad 80 - 70 base stocked. I think maybe people are stocking up for the CU since awesome armor now = awesome armor in the CU.

Yeah my sales totally bottomedo ut last few weeks. Right down to nothing.


Then 2 days ago. Some one came along bought up a crapload of armor. about 10hrs later some one came along and bought yet more. And then a third and forth person came along and totally cleaned me out. So now my vendors just have PSGs and cobwebs....


I've actually ended up digging out all my old segments adn started making suits while I wait on a new run of comp segs to finish. People are starting to get the idea (and likely rightly so) that converted armor will be worth quite abit. While new crafted armor will be total crap. AND more expensive to boot. So they are buying it up while it's cheap etc.


Personally I dont care. If it sells it sells. And I've started stockpiling my limited cred for the post CU world.

I can't bring myself to buy into that "If it is good now, it will be good in CU..." jargon.

I have held off on purchasing any new weapons or armor for several weeks now, as well as a lot of people I play with. Given the track record of empty promises around here, I just feel safer waiting and holding on to my creds.

Ground to a halt for me on bloodfin. Which is fine with me, more to convert post-CU and overprice the hell out of.
