Made aloud of Alcohol, small, large glass', some casts and Trim. Was gonna sell seperately on my vendors. Then realised my mistake when I uploaded aloud of alcohol, that they are all mixed up but chefs need serial number specific. So got a new idea.
If I do factory runs of said components, dough and such as well. I then put the 40 crates into a Travel Pack and then stick them on the vendor, would you Master Chefs buy them? As they'd allbe together in one travel pack all having the same serial number. I'm on Gorath but would be interested to see if chefs on other servers would be interested in such a service?
Also what sort of price would you pay for these components?

i prolly wouldn't use such a service for dough or alcohol, but i bet a lot of chefs would. i would definately buy packs of casks if i found any tho 
i'd guess 2cpu would be a decent price. i would imagine a lot of chefs pay around that for the grind flora for subs anyway and you can harvest it yourself fora lot cheaper

TBH, I wouldn't utilize this type of service either, but again, there are probably a ton of chefs who would, especially for things like casks.
I'm partial to harvesting and making my own components, if for no other reason that I can name them as I please to keep them separated easily. When it comes down to it, I simply enjoy being as self-sufficient as possible.

I think it depends...most chefs do have their own factories pumping out their stuff..I have 14...so pricing would definitely play a part.
I used to make schematics instead for other chefs and they pay up to 200k previously...for a few of them

I have just used this type of service. I worked out the pricing and it fell within my max amount that I would pay for res etc. Despite my ambition to become one of the bigger Chefs on my server, my time recently has been cut by a lot so it has helped and it won't affect my profits by that much. I've placed an order for casks and said that I could basically buy them indefinately I need them so much!!

I pay 400k per run of 20 casks, 50k per run of artisan component, 75k per run of chef component. 300k per run of glasses too.

I would use it for Casks.
On my server there is a guy that sells casks (full runs) cheaper than I can make them. Pity he doesn't always have them in stock.

one time i found a quitting-the-game-sale vendor (i love those) with 19 travel packs, each with a full run of casks for 50k each . that works out to something like .5cpu for the materials. but my partners and i still managed to burn through them all in like a month lol

The only way I would use this is if the vendor was right next door to me or the packs were delivered to my shop. Otherwise just as much work going to pick them up as making them in my factory.

That had to be the find of the year! I'd mow down a little old lady for 19 packs full of casks at 50k, lol.

Slightly off-topic, I've always thought it funny when people get up there and say "LEAVING THE GAME SALE" and then still charge full or even HIGH prices. I mean... if you're LEAVING the game... why bother SELLING it??
