Thread: prices?
I got 2 FT's for 24K each.
Gonna have them sliced, and will keep the better of the two.
Ok, thanks for the replies guys, I am definitely going to get myself some new toys tonight/
BUNNIES BEWARE!
Can I get some pricing info too, please?
Maakar, Master BE, Tarquinas.
go to two or three well known smiths on your server and see what they are charging. charge less till your business gets going.
every server is different so hard to say exact pricing.
Master armorsmiths don't get any bonus to repair so.....unless you have repair tapes just tell them to do it themselves.

I noticed that you recently bid 42 cpu for meat. For your mediums, your meat cost alone if you had won the bid would be 21K per crate. Add to that the flora, the cost of maintaining a factory, the initial cost of the factory, and the cost of maintaining a vendor. I can't help but wonder if you are losing money.
It's just an observation.
It is impossible to buy good BE meat at good prices on my server at the moment. We finally had a spawn of good Dath carnivore meat after an extremely long drought, but the spawn lasted about 48 hours and then changed again.
I've seen meat prices at 50-100 cpu, with avian meat at 300 cpu.
Someone mentioned that 10K a crate for tailor tissues was robbery. A friend recently bought a BE-enhanced shirt on my server for 48K. If I understand the process correctly, it requires 1/6 of the BE tissue crate to make such a shirt. The BE enhancement raises the price of the shirt from 3K to 48K. Eggs are a major pain to collect. Adding the enhancement to the garment is far less painful a process. If those are the going prices, then 1.6K investmentper garment on enhancements is a bargain.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not down on tailors at all. All the tailors I have dealt with have been helpful and courteous to an extreme. But I'm not above asking for help to collect eggs. After a day of helping, I've had tailors offer more than I've asked.
When it takes ten minutes to kill a lair at 36K (9K for me in a group...so 40min), it frustrates me to spend days collecting enough eggs to sell enhanced myoflex for the same amount. By the way, eggs seem to be around 50 cpu for decent quality on my server when one can find them. The egg cost alone is 18,750 a crate for purchased eggs at that price. To break even on the eggs alone at 5K a crate, they have to be below 13 cpu.
