Ok... I am a sort of new BE.... I have been doing BE since end of october and I am currently 3-0-4-0... I am almost at 4 in the cloning skill... I am looking to start selling my pets... I have been selling them CHEAP(I found this out today) to a friend... What prices should I be charging people?? I dont want to undercut all the other BE's out there... but I want to stay competitive.... is the a chart that the BE's use to sell from?? I heard one person say 1c per HAM stat and X2 for advanced clones... does that sound right?

Without Experimentation IV your clones will be worse than the wild counterpart. You are probably selling them for the right price already. Don't bother making the creatures until you can make them well.


However...mounts, I think, are totally different. Sell mount type creatures for what ever you can get. My brackasets and Falumpasets go for 30K each, Dewbacks for 20K and the birds for 10K. I wouldn't sell the Bol yet...don't know if the pre-patch ones will work post-patch.


Also, there are more than a few posts here that address the pricing issue. I have found, though, that it's what people on your(our) server are willing to pay and how fast you want to sell them.


Concentrate on that Experimentation! You really, really need it.

My sales are based on two things, wether the clone is made frm trash DNA or Clone DNA


Trash DNA Clones


Rancor, Gurreck or any 10kham + pet I sell for 10,000


less than 10k ham i sell for 5,000


Clone DNA pets i sell for about the same except 3 to four times the price


Its hard to gadge what to set your prices at sence the 3 crd per resource +10% for Labor formula doest appli to clones. Alot of the price you charge should be on how long it took you to get the DNA and what the demand is.


The thing is, is that CH will more than likely buy your clones at a reduced rate and sell them in the stock yards for 3 times the cost.


Which is fine with me i dont really care to sit in the stock yards with all that mess anyways : )



I hope this helps some
