Master Artisans beware:

I am not a Master Artisan but I have built Mineral extractors for the scheduled vehicles release. I will probraly wait afew days after the initial releaseand then sell my resources to the highest bidders. Since I know I will be gauge for a vehicle when I buy one. I will just turn around and sell the resourcesI have from my mineral extractors. So in turn I will be getting my money back anyway. I think a lot of non master artisans are doing this also.

Thanks for assuming that you will be gouged by Master Artisans, oh great jedi master. And now you're gonna turn around and gouge people for resources, oh great jedi master. if you had the PATIENCE to shop around theres no way you would get gouged. I personally harvest my own resources and i use what i need and sell what i dont, i charge 2/unit firm on any resource i get, dumb maybe, but i seel my stuff fast.

if you bought say 8 med mineral harvesters with a BER of say 8, for 20k a piece, which is a high price in my eyes. then placed em on a 70%+ vien of say steel, in 4 or 5 days you would have roughly 200k which you could then turn around and sell for 2/unit and make 400k so...

you spend about 5kenergy and 5k maintenence per harvester lets assume you have 40k energy

so your expenses are 160k for harvs 40k for maintenence in total 200k so...

in 4 or 5 days you have doubled your profit. the next time you do this you dont have to worry about paying for harvs, so you total profit on the second mining operation is 360k

if this isnt enough money for you to keep a good resource operation going then yer an arrogant **edit**, you get what cha put in. this does assume you have some things but still, a sufficient profit is there.

in conclusion, turning around and gouging MA's because you ASSUME they will gouge you on a vehicle is childish and doesnt make you look better than the people whom you are gouging.

i for one am going to offer a good price dependant on how much resources a given vehicle takes. Also i find it offensive that you assume we will gouge you because we have a hot commodity, im not saying all MA's are not gonna gouge, but i distinctly remeber CH's selling mounts for well over 100k and i even saw one sell for one million. you must be a CH and are pissed off you cant gouge anymore.

anyways this is what i think. oh yea no offense either, method might not get me rich quick but i'm a supplier, and i bring the people what they want. without me architects and such would have to rely on their own operations for resources, so be **edit**ing respectful to a person who brings you the means to actually aquire a weapoin or a house or a droid.

Its all about supply and demand. The demand is going to high for those resources. So I will not be selling my resources that cheap.
