I generally use the much criticised method of CL x 1000 (+10k for light armour) for pricing pets. However, I have certain rules for other pets. All non-ch pets are 15k (unless they are really crap ones and are less). My novice CH tank pets are 35k each. All CL20 pets with light armour and 60% kinetic are 100k each. If the pet is multigenerational then I try to price it uniquely compared to my other stock. Some people have complex spreadsheets for pricing etc but frankly I cant be bothered with such trivial things, far too time consuming especially if you're trying to mark up a large amount of stock.

I might be under pricing then. It just seems to easy to me maybe thats why. Most of my pets Im listing at my vendor are around 10-11k ham usually light armor and around 30-55 kinetic resist + random other resists, around 400-480 damage or so. Also they range in level from level 30-37Im pricing them at 30k. Theones I get with strong poison around 65k. Should I raise my prices? Note I just started listing today since I hit master yesterday.

the pet market is usually so under-saturated that normal economic rulesdont really apply....charge what you can get =)


there usually isnt much overlap for competition or demand, so its really a buyer-seller one-on-one haggle

I charge a lot less than most fior my pets.... but I kinda do pets for fun anyways... and don't do special orders... though if I know someone wants something I usually try to make it just as a challange....

Well, figure out how long it took you to collect the DNA and craft them. I used to price my time at about 300k/hr, which is a conservative estimate of what I could make (including waiting on buffs, etc.) running Janta missions.
