What stat BSN's ? If in the 80's thats fine, I'm currently paying 1500-2000 per BSN. Trim price seems fine aswell to me - I'm on a different server so our economies are different.

I would say no on the BSN's and maybe a bit on the trim
It depends on the meat prices in your market, on intrepid you can pay as much as 2K for a BSN, but can only sell a crate of brandy for about 130-150k
The trim is around 100cr each here, but I make my own, one box into tailor and you can make the schematic and I run a clothing factory to make my own trim--makes life easier for me.

The bsn is a good price if around +8x the trim is a bit expensive but if you want it cheaper I would say make your own and ask a tailor friend for schematics. As i understand trim take to much time for the money they can make on it. If you have found a tailor with a steady supply of trim and you have no intensions of making your own the price is worth it.

Buy some grind quality fiberplast and polymer, then offer 10-20k per Trim schematic if you don't have a tailor friend. Get enough resources so you can have 10-20schematics made at once, easy 100-200k for a tailor and you save huge.

If you're interested in comparing servers & prices, I just made my first purchase of 86 Rated BSN Schem. 1000 production run plus resources to make them all.
Paid 1.4 Million, so 1400cr per 86 rating Broad Spectrum Nutrient. Add in minimal costs for factory time. I think I got a fair price considering a crate of good brandy sells for 200k-250k here.

I would say no on both. That's cheaper than I get BSNs on Lowca. I am also a master tailor, and I charge 3K per crate for any tailoring components, so it seems that the price you are getting is fair.

35k for a crate of additives is fine, depending on the availability of meat. Tailors don't have a cash cow item, so the simple components for chefs or armorsmiths is where they can make a little cash. So that price on trim isn't too bad. You can make your own trim for 11 skill points, which isn't bad.

I was quoted 5k for a crate of 25 trim today by a tailor advertising on the Auction channel. I did the math....that works out to 8 credits per unit of grind-quality resources. I decided to take up tailor on my own for now, then when I'm more established I'll pay to have them made and delivered (just as a time saver if nothing else).
My current template plan is Master Chef, Master Merchant, Master Artisan, 0010 Tailor, and 4020 Scout.
