I used to sell about 10-15+ of these a week off my global vendor for 30k apiece. Now they are not moving at all. I am lucky to get 1 a day or so. What gives? Heck, they are even fixed, and should be more desirable now? Should I lower my price (Idon't think I shoulddo this), but with 600+ of these just sitting there, it seems I must be losing potential customers who think they are too expensive? I have both 33/34% ones with 3400condition, or 20/45%with 2700condition. These use only top qual resources for the final production and take me a long time to make. What can I do to really tap the market for these things.
I have tried galaxy trade forums, but am getting no more business. Do I have to start spamming in the spaceport?

That's odd that they wouldn't sell now, especially with the fix. I'm on Ahazi, and the regulars sold like hotcakes, and I'm sure the Imp ones are even more popular.

The new 'fixed resist' version of the PSGs is vulnerable to acid, blast and kinetic, special resist to energy, the rest are effectiveness's.
Only really useful for protecting against stun damage now.

the MK3's sell like hot cakes on the Cnet Bazzar on Chila...Imp ones i keep at my vendor due to bazzar cap..but I would assume that the +10 to base and +2000 Condition on Imps would make em top sellers if i could dump them on the bazzar and not sell em for 6k

Thanx for the update. That is consistent with the 180 imperial PSGs I have sitting in my warehouse 
Yes, they are pretty much for PvP in use against stun. I still see a market for that, but it is a smaller one.

what about the 33% energy resist. I would think that folks going to the corvette would love these things. combine with a set of the new enhanced bone or composite with 80% energy and you are set up for a run up there.

I never got these going. I madea factory run very soon after they came with the best possible resources but alas... Now that I've started PvPing with my alt, I'm happy I have an endless supply of them

Your old customers could have been using them for their kinetic resists (when it was in there) - now that its a vulnerability, they may not be as useful.

I have been offline for a few weeks. Are you saying that PSGs will no longer have kinetic as a protected resist?

My old batch of 34/43's sold like hotcakes and people are bugging me to realease the new line of 38/48's that I have stored away. I think yours will sell fine, just give it a bit of time. Also, my customers appreciated buying them in crates of 5 or 10 to save inv space.

It is a rather expensive boost for a corvette run as an imp psg will probably only last a few fights prior to being fried. Still nice to have on the quickbar for sticky situations.
I think the stun protection PVP and Geo Cave market is still the main source of income/customers on these.

I still think to make PSGs more worthwhile (considering the time they take to make vs the time they take to destroy) is to make them recharge their durability over time... they decay far too quickly (and repair is far to untrustworthy) to make them useful as a mainstay armour item.
