Thread: Hides, Bones, or Meat?
I'm not a crafter, but will am getting a lot of these and will soon start to sell them.
What is each used for? I don't know which to loot the most of. Is one sold at a higher rate than others?

depends on the crafter of course... but hides/bones would be safe as most of them will buy them all day and night
Z,
Meat can be used by medics to craft stimpacks, and chefs/artisans use it to make food. Bone and hide are used by artisans to make clothing and bone armor.
When you decide to start selling these items, the price you put on them is ultimately up to you. However, speaking as an artisan, I would like to offer you some advice. First, if you are selling these resources on the bazaar, sell them as an instant sale, not an auction. Artisans are NOT going to wait 6+ days for the auction to end. Second, please don't sell 5 hide/bone for 100 credits. No artisan is going to pay 20 credits per unit, or by just 5. You would be better off charging 5 credits or less per every unit of hide or bone. You will sell your lots quickly and make a nice profit. As for meat, I really don't know what a reasonable rate is. Hope this helps, and good hunting!
Oh god I can't stress the don't sell a small amount thing enough.
I only sell 300 at a time, no less. I make it worthwhile for my customers to buy.
