Before any smart types jump on me for posting in the wrong place, I'd like to say that I've already posted this on the galaxy trade forum and got bugger all response. So I wondered if you doctor types could help
I have 161k of Talusian Water.
It is split into 3 types in the following amounts and qualities
Vawre 79k @ OQ 919
Dewi 47K @ OQ 951
Risrefea 33k @ OQ 979
What is an acceptable amount to expect per unit for these three types of water of such high quality?

As a resource seller, I would sell the 970+ ones for 10 cpu and the lesser ones for 6 to 8 cpu. They would sell at those prices, though not necessarily quickly (I sella100K stack of water every2 to 4weeks or so).
Two factors affect how I price water. First, minimum OQ on water is 500. So the 919 OQ water isn't really all that special. This drives down the price of anything less than 950 OQ. Second, water concentrations are lower than other resources. So you can almost always harvest more oats, fiberplast, or steel, than you can water. As a result, I up my price on water to compensate for the lower harvesting yields.
Even at 10 cpu, the best water is a bargain. A doctor can easily turn that into a 20 cpu product. Not having to deal with the pain of harvesting water is well worth the price, in my opinion.

As a mainly crafting doc who is also harvesting my own resources as far as I'm able, I just want to add that I never buy resources that you can mine in quantities lower than 100k. It is too much a hassle to buy small quantities here and there.
But docs that aren't mainly crafting should probably find your lots more than enough. And maybe they are willing to pay more than docs like me.

I don't pay more than 3cpu for any machine harvestable resource. Then again, I am a crafting doc so I need to be sure to leave room for my profit margin (and I have a nice list of in-game associates willing to harvest what I need at 3cpu).
I'm not on your server, but I would think you are not getting any response because of 2 factors:
1) As has been mentioned, people don't tend to need a lot of this stuff unless they are crafting businessmen.
2) There has probably been a couple spawns of higher quality, so people won't want to buy the lesser qual stuff until the burn through the high-end stuff (or you discount it seriously).
Just my 2 credits worth on the subject...
