Check it out eveyone!

Feedback is welcomed with open arms ..

Great site. I have just recently become Master and still have not come up with a good way of priceing pets. Well at least now i have a guidline to work from. I was just about to post a question about pricing creatures myself. Thanks for all your work

can you guys(bes) make crimson razor cats? if so. does anyone have any on vendors on intrepid server?

bump

jeezus, those prices are WAAY higher than what i charge on sunrunner. Nothing i sell is more than 5k (clone engineering III) I sell my dewbacks for 3k, kaadus for 1k... guess it's time to raise the pricing....

Yes, raise your prices. I charge about 7750 for non CH pets likeKahmurras and Dewbacks. Prices scale up from there. I used to stock my vendor, now I just take orders then put them up. Only thing I keep on my vendor now are stims.

30k for a kaadu created by a noob with no sampling or experimentation skill

5k for a veermok created by a master BE

sounds about right to me, lol

heh even basic information about the pets is flagrantly incorrect

will stick to the real bioengineer site

I looked that thoes prices and found them to be extremly high also. I am providing a service and not trying to make the most extreme profit I can. I realized a long time ago that I that I will never get back the funds that I sunk into making maser. At least not in the first 25 sales.... So I keep prices low, and get lots and lots of buisness. Repeat, new, referal.... more than I can handle.

It's a free market....

hah.. make all that profit? whoever follows that wont have any customers... heh

also something inoticed... crate of 25 tissues (+13/+3) goes for 20k where im from... cant sell it for too much higher that often... but the nice little formula says otherwise..

i agree.. stick to bio eng 101.. or gasp bio eng... (hehe or my website)..

the 2 bio eng links i just referred to are linked off of my site..

that price list is rediculous. atleast IMHO... anyone is allowed to charge whatever they want.. but anyone is also allowed to have their opinions... and here are mine:

a) pet vit packs = str / 2 * 100 ....

why not str x 50? oh well..

2ndly, i lowered my vit pack prices cause business is slow at str x 35.. so i changed it to str x 20... what can i expect.. people don't need to use the vit pack till the thing is 3/4 dead anyway.

b) pet prices

**edit** those are high prices.. furnature prices are between 1k and 20k...

high quality pets are between 7k and 40k...

now.. you only gave 1 set of prices from what i saw... a kahmurra with 2400 HAM isnt worth 7k (price check.. i forgot.. but i think its 7k)... unless you honestly believe that's the price for furnature. hehe...

i've been raising pet prices based on me having to make the same damned pet every fricken day to replace the one i sold... whatever sells more gets a price bump.. things that dont sell.. well.. they're cheaper than your pet prices and still dont sell.. heh... unless someone wants specific decoration

c) stim prices

thats the formula i've been using.. im surprised its so cheap.. a lot of peopleare using a higher multiplier (0.15 instead of 0.1)

again just my humble opinion... nobody can make an official price guide... maybe these are the prices you charge... but you present it as if people should actually follow it..

If the prices listed here are too high, how can we compete with the CH's that sell their creatures for 30-40k. I know i have sold a few ranchors the last few days using these prices. I'm open to any ideas on how to price pets, but it seems to vary tremendously server to server. The thing i thik to worry about is the high level pets. A guy grinding his way up the tree will do almost anything to keep his head afloat so the lower level creatures will be priced low. But as Masters i think we should try to keep or business profitable instead of undercutting to sell.

20k for 25 advanced tissues? you do realize of course that that's barely even selling at material cost value right (10cr/ea)? *snicker, snicker* You're getting a very raw deal my friend.

We are on the same server, and I have sold some "basic" tissues at 30k/crate to friends, but don't like to do that as it is a rotten deal for me. If I use one of those crates in my own clothing it increases the selling price of the clothing I make from it by 50k-75k (2k-3k/cloth) so I lose big-time every time I sell a crate for 30k. And like I said, these are mainly the "basic" cloths. Prices go up when I get to clone 4. Oh, and I've never had a single piece of clothing I've made from this stuff last for more than 2 days in my vendor. 2 days in the current record, lol.
