Base price: 67k
add 30k for the fish
add 2k for the fiber
add 20k for the extra 2 ABEC
Total= 119k per crate (I would round it off to 120k)
Thats what I would do anyhow

holy cow that's complicated!
my easy system comes priced at just a bit over his.
i charge 5000 per pet stim D (cause fish are a PITA). 5500 for any over 1500 heal. mine would be 125k fora crate of 25.

You wont be saying that if you've been charged 200cpu for fish - or spend a week fishing just to get enough for 1 crate.

I've always been a firm believer in that you pay for the product performance, not what's gone into it. Therefore it should be Effectiveness x charges / 10 and 67k would be a fair price.

So you dont think the price you've paid for resources should count in the cost of an item? If that were true then you'd be losing money very quickly on Stim D's

Think about it NancyJ; you're a CH, you see vendor A with the above Stim D's (total healing power of 665500) priced at 130k, or Vendor B with a 25 crate of 760 x 35 Stim B's (total healing power 665000) priced at 67k, which would you buy? I'm a MCH and I know where my money would go. You can make a handsome profit on Stim B's, without the hassle of finding / buying all the sodding fish. I also believe that an awful lot of healing power is wasted, so Stim D's, IMHO, are an utter luxury. What's the point of healing with a 1300 power stim D, when the pet only has 500 damage?

I never said Stim D's were a good deal - they're not - its an issue that needs to be adressed. But you're going to be losing money if you're selling based on effectiveness rather than cost of resources.

I disagree completely, I will shortly be doing several 1000-unit runs of 750-ish/35 StimB's (hopefully). Based on my calculations, I could sell a 1000-unit run for 2.6 million. To gather the resources cost me no more than 200k at the absolute tops. That's a fairly handy profit if you ask me.
