Thread: What formula do you use to sell CM crate components?
Hello Im Raimahk, MCM,. I just wanted to know howyou get the price to charge basic and adv CM components by the crate. Do you base it off some formula that you could share or do you just use something like 3 credits per resource used on each component.
I currently sell Poisons C , 21 charges, 104 potency and 200 effectiveness for 800 creds. Their made from all basic components as the resources for the ADV components havent recently spawned for a few months on my server. Was wondering of your view on this and suggestions if I am selling them too cheap or expensive. Any comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated, thank you.
I generally take the cost of the components to determine the selling price. I know what my break even cost is on the harvested components before I even manufacturer anything. Usually its less than 1 credit for basic resources and 1-5 credits on advanced resources. I know I have to price above that to make a profit.
For instance: A Stim B requires 64 total resources to make it including subcomponents. If I only used basic components each with a break even sale price of less than 1 credit each. I know I have to sell the Stim for at least 64 credits to make a profit. Now that price goes up if I bought the component,if a lot of shuttle tickets needed to be bought, If I am using a factory crate (running the factory cost me money that has to be recouped), Plus maybe a raise in price for my time and the qualilty of the Stim.
A good crate of Stim B's in my opinion can go for 15-20k easy
Wanna know what your cost is per unit on harvested resources I recommend SWGcraft.com. They have a great calculator that helps figure out base cost of resources.
