I give them away for free!
But not to bots.

I don't think you're giving away ones at +5 or higher. And I don't think your on my server. But thanks for being a Dck

Be nice people!
I hate how expensive they are too. I kinda wish the markets would just be flooded with them. 
Honestly though, the inflated prices are because large PvP guilds can afford to pay those prices for their bots and they don't mind doing it.

Actually, if I wasn't in need of the +5 one myself (and maybe even if I was), I'm happy to give them away. I have no need to be a trillionaire in the game, I can make enough money for me to have what I need (no, not by entertaining), and I like making people happy.
I've given away 2 AV-21s.. I don't have one myself. I don't particularly want/need one, and it made other people happy to get what they wanted.
So, you're wrong that I wouldn't give away +5's or higher. I'd just be very careful to give it to a live entertainer. It's a matter of fact issue, I won't give them to bots. Don't mean to be mean about it.
I do apologize though for using the phrase "the likes of you". That was inappropriate, and I've gone and edited it to be more of a statement of fact than a taunt.

The first decent Dancing Ming Enhancement tape I find is not being kept for myself. I feel that our male Dancers need our love and support for not getting the leotard as an option (or equivalent clothing item). I'll be donating a tape to a live Male Dancer that will use it for good!
And, yes, these are heavily overpriced!

With my other character as a Doctor/Master Rifleman I view anything over 100% as a bit of overkill anyway.
I have yet to find a situation where an additional 25% would've really helped out. This is a character that does some PvPer and whatever hard PvE content I can find. With Ahrissa/Brandy and 100% Entertainer buffs even having two of the most Mind intensive skillsets he always gets by well.
Once your Focus reaches a certain level specials are a moot point on Mind cost anyway since it zeros out the HAM cost and 25% of an additional mind pool while nice to see the big numbers...functionally doesn't make that big of an impact. If your mind pool is getting pounded that hard an additional 25% of Willpower won't make it regenerate fast enough to keep up with the damage being taken.
Nice big numbers to see but functionally not really needed.
Just my thoughts for those that can't afford to buy them. Honestly, you're not missing out and any player will be more than happy with 100% buff to their mind stats.

They're so expensive because buff bots can make several hundred thousand to over a mil a day being afk. So paying 7 mil for a tape is just one weeks worth of being afk. Since the money is "bonus" money to the bot owner, they have no problem spending it as such, as it will make thier bot more popular and bring in more money. Tapes can actually pay for themselves to bots.

Just remember your neighborhood Green Twi'lek hunk if you get one. *wink*
