A pricing scheme that I see quoted on these boards a lot is (power * charges)/10

Are those B's,C's or D's?
Anyway, I'm on Corbantis too. I've been sellin PetStim's since Nov 2003. I used to use the (power * charge)/10 so in your sample, that would cost 2,553 credits.
Well, there aren't as many Creature Handlers anymore and the demand for PetStims haven't been that great. So I've changed my scheme to (power * charge)/15 so the new modified price for that same PetStim would be 1702 credits based on my pricing scheme. That is based on my PetStim B's (I use Doctor crafter Adv.Components and some good Fungus and can make 900+ power PetStim Bs).
I don't really buy too much of my resources, either hunt or harvest my stuff and can keep costs down. I did some calculations awhile ago (but took notes). Based on a PetStim B with all advanced components, and putting out a 930(30) petstim B, I make 15.2 credits per resource at my rate, 22.8 credits if priced at 10. So, one thing to keep in mind is how much it costs.
So, PetStims aren't the most profitable of things, but I enjoy making them for some reason. My biggest profits have been through Tailor Tissues. My GF is a Chef, so I don't really make money there, but boy can she cook. My store is on Naboo just outside of Theed.
I wish you luck and hope you enjoy being a BE. It isn't the most uber of professions, but it has some great things about it. If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me a email or PM.
Good Luck and May the Force be with you

When I made them, they sold like hot cakes - even the enhanced Stim Di made with janta blood and enhanced liquid suspensions. Only healed for 1400, I priced it as 35k and that sold pretty quickly
. Power x charges / 10, is what I did for the normal stim c's I made.

I think the main reason is some people assume all crafting professions should be makeing that in a day. Some people just can't grasp the idea that something being fun to them might be more worthwhile than making the most credits.
