Thread: Pet Pricing
This is true, that's why I only make creatures to order. As far as pricing, I charge pretty strictly a 1k per CL fee, though I will make discounts for people who want multiple pets, and some of the lower CL creatures I charge a flat 5k rate for, as well as for statues.
But then... given that I have to go and try and sample DNA from at the very least gurrecks, if not actual rancors, in order to make decent rancors and gurrcks of my own, and the fact that after one, maybe two attempts at getting a sample these vreatures *will* attack me, and kill me, I don't feel at all bad about charging 50k cr for a Rancor that I died five times to be able to make.
the best way to help bioengineers is to continue charging 25-35k for pets that are inferior to the ones they create
oops, also forgot what is the pricing different between baby and fullgrown?
Toxic Merek Battlelord - 45k
Graul Mauler - 20k
Bloodseeker Mite - 20k
Merek Assassin - 20k
Delerious Merek Avenger - 30k
Cowardly Gurreck - 20k
Gurreck - 15k
Hanadak Rock Smasher - 20k
Blood Stained Merek - 20k
Merek Cavern Creeper - 25k
Bile Drenched Quenker - 30k
Mountain Krevol - 11k
Rock Beetle - 9k
These are the prices I use. They allow me to sell the pets and move on. Sure you could charge more, but you would be waiting longer, and taking up space in your datapad. This is on the Sunrunner server.

I totally agree. I have been trying to get my friend to create a Gurreck for me that has a higher 'to hit' rating... no dice. Sticking with my 'natural' Gurreck for now.

I have a simple pricing plan, it's 1c per HAM point, and 150c per command trained IF I have to train it then, if Im just sitting around and training pets I have I charge 100 per command. Andtrip coast.
Now, if somebody comes and asks me to train their pets for them, its normaly 250c per command, unless they want them all, then its a flat 2000c.
As it stands, I dont even wear my MCH title, I just use Creature Trainer, keeps me from getting all the Hey, where is and hey how do I questions
, and Ive never been tipped less than 4000c for naming and fully training a pet.
So, It depends on how you value yourself and your time, If Im doing something, its more, if Im loafing and chatting its less, but Never so little that I feel Im ripping myself off
and No, I havent had anyone complain about the 1c per HAM and 150c per command, for a fully trained Beetle thats only 8kc
This pricing is Only for non-ch pets though.
Im quite sure nobody would pay the 31kc plus trip cost that a grual mauler wouldbe.
