Thread: Selling Pets

Nope, you only need the transfer command to transfer a pet that's higher than level 15 or aggressive. Pets that are non-aggressive and level 15 or lower can be transferred in the secure trade window without the transfer command, just drag the icon from the datapad to the buyer or to the trade window.
2) I don't sell pets, but from what I've heard 1-1.5k + travel/difficulty expenses is usual.
If the norm on your server is 1-1.5k over travel expenses, I'm glad I'm not there. From what I've seen here and on Corbantis the norm ranges from .5-1.5k per level depending on rarity and desireablity. Best advice is to ask other CH in your market area or just pick a random number, people will buy or make a counter-offer. If you're holding too long, lower your price.
I have been unable to post for some time now. The newly up-dated list is as follows. E-mail me in game for a list of resists.
Gurreck -Lvl 50 -Vit 100/100 -HAM 11800 -Light armor
Riverside Sulfur Mynok - Lvl 32 - Vit 100/100 - HAM 9500 - Light armor
Bloodseeker Mite Queen - Lvl 35 - Vit 99/99 - HAM 9800 - Light armor (Extienct)
Gaping Spider Hunter - Lvl 44 - Vit 100/100 - HAM 10500 - Light armor (more HAM then the Queen, and nearly the same resists)
I have found a new joy in taming pets.Rancors and Gnarled Rancors my current targets.I currently don't have any, but I plan to spend the next few days taming as many as I can. I also have plans to go to Dantooine for Graul Maulers.I'm also taking orders forGrand Wirx, providing I have the space.Prices for the pets I tame are as follows:
Rancor 55k
Gnarled Rancor 45k
Graul Mauler 50k
Grand Wirx for 25k
Please note that prices are based on how hard it is to tame the pet. Hehe, one of the rancors I tamed should have costed 500k. The dang thing killed me 27 times. I'll also take requests in game for pets you are having trouble taming. I don't give up.

Everyone interested in the Bloodseeker Mite Queen please e-mail me in game with a time you can meet with me. I want you to see the stats and the Queen as well as have a real time auction. You have untill Wednesday of next week to contact me.
You are making it sound like the Bloodseeker Mite Queen is something incredible. It is weaker then the Bloodseeker Mite in terms of resists, and the only real benefit it has is a disease attack, which has proven to be worthless in PVE, and not all that exciting in PVP.
The Bark Mite Burrower Queen is the one that is going from 5 to 10 million, and that is the kind of pet you hold week-long sever-wide auction for. There is some confusion as to which queen is the valuable one (I have mistakenly made referance to the wrong one before).

the bloodseeker queen may have a 10% less energy resist then the standard mite, but when they went extinct the Queen got a stat boost.A boost consitting of aHAM increase of 1800 and a level increase of 10. mine alone has helped my kill over 50 AT-ST's. The Gapping Spider Hunter has 5% less then the Queen but it has 1k more HAM. Having more HAM amkes up for a little less of a resist. Ohh, the Queen doesn't have disease, she has a strong poison.
When did I try to hold a server wide auction? I'm trying to get the 3-4 people that have expressed intrest into one place at one time. I want everybody to have a fair chance at getting this wonderful pet. It's nice the people have millions to throw away on a pet, but that's not what I'm looking for in this. I don't expets the Queen to go for more then 100k, but I would happy if it did. If nobody meets up with me in the week I'll be giving the queen away to one of my friends.
Sure, I failed 32 times trying to tame a rancor. Guess what, my time and and wounds areworth the 45k or 55k I ask for them. I tame pets for the fun. When I'm full up there is no more fun to be had until I unload a few of them. Deleting a pet is just wrong. Giving them away hurts my wallet, since I gave up a day of missions to hunt down those babies.
Man, I wrote thiswholepost before relizing that I don't need to defend myself from you. It's small minded people like yourself that make this game not fun for everyone. Get a life and try living it once in a while.
I'm sorry, but 25K for a Grand Wrix, a non-agro creature? WOW basically you are pricing 1K per cl Level, except the Rancor. Good luck on your endeavor.
Me, I'm one of those that never sold pets high, and yep I gave them away often enough because I don't like the release/destroy button. Am I a millionaire, nope, do I need millions, nope. I have my harvesters, house, and I can do missions to keep them going.

Demand for some of these pets has reachedfevered pitch. In that type of environment, it is very easy for unscrupulous players to take advantage of the naive ones. I have never dealt with you, and based on your post it is hard to tell which way you were tending. It is very easy to mistake the Bark Queen and the Blood Queen from their names at a glance.
All I was doing is qualifying the value of the pet you are trying to auction off. That you took offence to what I posted, I could really care less.
Small minded people that make the game not fun for everyone? I guess if you lack the self-confidence to have simple statements from some guy you will never meet on some message boardmake the game not fun for you, possibly it is your own self-worth that you need to examine?
And the "get a life" retort... classic response for people that have no better counter argument. I will counter that counter-argument with one of my own, "I am rubber, you are glue, anything you say bounces off of me and sticks to you".

The Gurreck and Gaping Spider Hunter are no longer for sale.

I'm sorry that I assumed you were just another the flame force. Btw, I gave your last post the 4 stars. It's the fact that there are hundredsupon hundredsof small minded people sending this game into a never-ending, downward spiral of nerfs. I'm just frustrated with this game. Taming is the only fun I have right now. I can't wait untill the new rare pets join the mix. Notice that only the pets I have sold before have a price? When selling a pet I ask the buyer to make an offer. If I think about what it took to get the pet and counter or accept based on that. Maybe you could take a minute to look at how I clearly stated that I'm selling a Bloodseeker Mite Queen. I don't know about you but 'Bloodseeker MiteQueen' and 'Bark Mite Burrower Queen'look very different to me. I would like your advice on pricing on the pets I have listed.

Ever think of how the economy on different servers is different? I priced the GW based on the going rate of Cowardly Gurrecks on my server(15k-20k),and the amount a new CH offerd me to find and tame one for them(35k). Also, I'm thinking of adding to the price if all the lairs I come accross keep spawning 3 adult GW's at a time and no babies.

Amen to that. I am actually trying to see if I can keep some Ranger tracking skills just for that purpose.
As far as you were saying 100K for that pet, I think that is a good ball park. One player might argue that the Bloodseeker Queen is not worth that based on its' raw statistics. The next player might argue it is worthmore simply due to the fact it is extinct.I would imagine anywhere from 50K to 250K might be considered fair for both sides. Maybe a tad more even considering that you said it had Strong Poison as a special attack. I could of sworn they were given a disease attack, but since I have never owned one, I guess I was mistaken.
Good luck with your auction.

I finally got MCH and managed to tame a few babies. I was thinking of selling the extras I had but dont even know what I should price them. Any ideas what would be a good ball park price?
These are what i have-
Gaping Spider Hunter baby
Gnarled Rancor baby
Greater Sludge Panther baby
Thanks
accually I think she has both attacks, the used disease on an at-st today. I'll track down a master ranger and get them to examin her to find out for sure. too bad we're on different servers. I'd like to go hunting with you once in a while
