Different tailors charge different things. Many people will underprice the goods. What you have to remember is the free market cost for materials alone is 3 c/p/u already. But factories cost money to upkeep, and they cost power. And of course you have to make the schematic, babysit the factory, collect the crates, wait around for someone to pick em up, which costs you time and time= money. Or put them on a vendor which also cost money to maintain. You have a house from which you do business or a house which is a shop, and that costs money to furnish and maintain. In other words, don't short change yourself by forgetting the "hidden" costs.

Yeah I understand all the under laying costs. My friend pays 25k a crate for the goods and I thought that was kind of high since it would break down to 100 cpu which is through the roof. I know that's not a reasonable price cause I don't think alot of items will fly off my vendor. So what are other people charging so I can get an idea

I think most tailors charge 2k-6k for synth cloth. I charge 3k for a crate. fiberplast, I couldn't tell you. I think I have a couple crates on the vendor at 2.5k/crate, and never have sold one. But synth cloth I sell a lot of and make a decent profit at 3k/crate
