1k if made with advanced components and exceeds 300 on base heal and 28 charges. If everyone would just make this a standard ... the economy for doctors would be much better off.

hmm i was using a simple formula for stim pricing:


100cr x stim level for hand made normal stims


200cr x stim level for factory made normal stims


300cr x stim level for hand made adv stims


400cr x stim level for factory made adv stims



looks like i need to up my pricing since using my simple pricing in undercutting everyone at this rate.


would this work:


200cr x stim level for hand made normal stims


400cr x stim level for factory made normal stims


600cr x stim level for hand made adv stims


800cr x stim level for factory made adv stims


or


150cr x stim level for hand made normal stims


300cr x stim level for factory made normal stims


450cr x stim level for hand made adv stims


600cr x stim level for factory made adv stims



any suggestions?

Well, I sell B's made from regular sub-components (usually 230-260 and 22-24 charges) at 750 creds, and the B's made with all advanced sub-components (320-350 with 33-40 charges) at 1200 creds. This seems to work out just fine.


The advanced ones move a bit slower, but I guess thats just because people need less of them since they have more charges...but thats ok, saves me from restocking all the time

It's amazing the difference in servers. I sell my adv component stim Bs for double what you guys are charging and they never stay more than 12 hours on the bazaar. I get emails all the time wanting to buy as many as I can sell. I bet you could raise your prices and still sell them. I don't plan to lower my prices until I can't sell all that I make.

And people send me hate mail for charging 300cr for Stim Bs on Corbantis. hehe


Granted, they're not 30/300 (nice, btw) due to resource availability, but I'm a tad bit envious of you guys selling at 1k+ and moving them. Way to go with the stimpack business!

Very true, i'm having a hard time moving my 35/200's at 450cr. And that factory business isn't making it much easier...I'm actually making more money on my extra harvested resources than I am on the Stim's I have those harvesters for. Any advice? I want to get a shop and vendor setup for this too, but I can't seem to break even on all this so I can't justify it....anywho...

I didn't/don't really try to sell them, so when people ask me to make them I just usually ask for about 300c or so for one. They range from 20 - 30 charges, 200 - 300 heal. *shrug* Depends on what they want.

Mine vary from 450-550 on the bazaar, less if you buy them directly from me in a factory crate, even less if your a valued customer...

wow, i knew i was underpricing my stims and stuff, but sheesh, 1k for b? i charge like 1.15k for stim d's and the only thing that stays in my shop is stuff like fishing poles and bait, because apparently fishing is just not cool among the kids these days. Anyways, my prices are like 600 stim b, 850 c, 1.15k for a d and it varies again on the woundpacks. guess it's just a server difference, who knows.
