Why go one extreme or the other? Personally, I do not think it would be right to try to keep them at 150k profit, because in doing so, you force them to buff 5 more people for the same amount of profit. On the other hand, you are making a better product, so you should benefit from that. The solution (IMO) would be to just split the difference. If there is an extra50k profit to be had per set, then sell them for25k more per set.

I have charged 100k a set since I started.


I have almost always made 25 charge packs.


The buffing doctor gets 150k profit.


Now with the recent shift of good materials I can make 30 charge packs.


Do I up the price to 25k per pack, 150k a set so the buffing docs profit stays at 150k, or do I charge 100k and let them profit 200k off my crafting/harvesting.


Its a hard decision for me to make, because it isn't harder for me to harvest the new tat/lok at all, but the end result IS 50k more profit (avg buff price on Bria) per set.


Anyone have any advice.

Hello,


I am curious what a good price is to charge for sets of clothing. 7 Items, factory made 4 sockets each (28 total CA sockets).


Have seen ranges in game but they are for random socket # sets.


The sets include:


gloves belt pants

cloak shirt boots

and a sash.


Any thoughts would be great. Thank you.

Personally I don't charge extra for sockets, so my pricing would be based on which type of gloves, pants, etc were chosen by the customer as they have different resource requirements.

By my prices, that would be about 8-10k as long as nothing in the set was an expensiveitem to make, but Bloodfin has a thriving economy. I can get good prices for my wares. I don't know how wealthy your economy is on your server, so you may have to do some testing on the bazaar until you find a price people will pay. But bazaar prices (in my experience) are more inflated than shop prices. So, well, hmmm....*grin*


Or take the cost of your resources and at least double it. Plus, you can get higher prices (in my experience) for master colors.


Everyone's business and server is different which makes your question difficult to answer, but I hope that helps anyway.
