Thread: What's the worst offer you recieved for a pet?
I have had similar offers although not quite as low.
u asked how much and me still being new quite new to the whole master thing told him 20k (which is now way underpriced) he told me to go away in a few more words and that he was not a noob and i was scaming ppl. he also replied that he cud buy a rancor for 30k so y wud he want a crappy 4k Health pet. my reply was simple www.kleenex.com"my reply was simple www.kleenex.com"
Lol, that's great! I MUST remember this for when I hit master. 40K crafting exp to go baby!
i m a ch master and doing bio same time and was on endor looking for rare pets .and i got a tell would i make 3 lvl 23 or soo pets good stats with ranged and posion .idea being the person wanted 3 pets to lvl 70 the ch max lvl .as i use dna sampling to kill cretures as i tap the nest i had a load of merek dna and thought i try it out .will i made lvl 22 lvl 23 lvl 25 pets all with strong posion all hams about 8k but no ranged kin 50 enr 20 .soo i told him what i made and he was happy .
till i told him the price of 15k each will he thought it a bit dear and i told him it takes time to collect dna and put together in the end he never bought them .
now the other night im taken samples when a novice bio ask would i tame a creature over the hill for him soo i did and give it to him he asked how much i told him what ever he wanted to pay will he give me 14k and asked if he found a other would i tame it .as there was one near by i did tame it no charge .
will about 2 hours later i get a e mail with 14 k in it his friend sent it for the other pet
i dont charge for taming pets if its nearby but i will charge for bio made pets as resources take time and money
Wow, all you guys sell too cheap. I can't beleive people want a pet that is uber and is going to last months for half the reward of a mission that pet could do alone. I guess I am used to dealing with higher end clientelle. I don't plan on selling any pets for less than 60K. It just takes to much time, skill, and knowledge.
My standard response to people who complain about the price? "If you were really ready to play with pets as good as I can make, 60K (or whatever price) wouldn't seem expensive to you at all. Feel free to call me when you get to that point and I will make you something nice."
ANYBODY can do 8 lowlevel missions in an hour or 2 and make 16-20K. If they aren't willing to put in that much effort topay forthe pet, why would you spend that same amount of time making it for them? Most higher level players can take 7-8K missions and could make the 60K (or a LOT more) in about the same amount of time. I know I can, so I can spend 2 hours collecting DNAand experimentinga good pet for you, or I can spend those 2 hours doing missions and earn 60K. Its called "opportunity cost" and is a well known concept in business. Don't let people beat you down. Know the value of your time and stick to your guns!
Coming from the other side of things, I paid 60k for an "uber gnort" which I don't really use.
I thought that price was too much, but now that I'm a BE (going up sampling), I'm not sure if it was enough. LOL
As a former Master DE, I used to get complaints on prices all the time, and the trade-in requests... I feel your pain there.
What do you use etc?2 weeks ago i was running to catch the shuttle in Bestine and got stopped. This guy wanted me to make him a master lvl be pet for his zoo and charge him nothing. Basically it was make me a pet for my zoo.
I charge 5k for living staues if someone orders them for a zoo or furniture. And of course i use lvl 2 or lvl 5 wild creatures. I don't just make pets for nothing...
