This is absolutely pathetic. 50k for buffs is ridiculous. Break down the actual cost of the pack at say 20cpu -50cpu on average to produce one buffpack. You are looking at 156 total resources for an Enhance Health D. This equates to 3120 - 7800 per pack to actually make. At 15k per 6 buffs that's 2500c per buff you are making. At worst most buff packs will run around 20-30 charges netting you 50k - 75k income. So your average cost to make a pack is 5460c with a net profit of 45k-70k per packif you make your packs. If you buy packs already made for 15k each you still make a profit of 35k - 60k per pack depending on the amount of charges you have in the pack. After your first round of buffing you will more than have paid for your investment in BE clothes. Depending on your server, Bivoli won't be that expensive to buy either. I usually get a crate of 25x3 +25 at 125k each that last for 14 min. That comes to roughly 1667c per Bivoli but since it lasts for several buffs worth, that cost is nearly negligible.

So after your initial investments have been paid for:

110+ Droid 75k

BE Clothes +25 WT 50k

Your main costs of investment are:

Crate of +25 Bivoli(back to back will last you about 17.5 hours at 14 min each)125k

Set of18Buffpacks(Made/Bought with 20 charges per pack)98k/270k

Say you use up 20 seconds per application of buffs those 3 packs would last you 2 hours before you would run out and use a total of 9 Bivoli in that time running you 15k for the Bivoli.

Your total net profit if you make your packs(15k charge x 20 charges for 3 sets): 787k

Your total net profit if you buy your packs (15k charge x 20 charges for 3 sets): 615k

So you are telling me that charging 50k is reasonable why? So the above figures can come out like this?

Total net profit if you make your packs(50k x 20 charges for 3 sets): 2.887 mil

Total net profit if you buy your packs (50k x 20 charges for 3 sets): 2.715 mil

The reason most players treat us Doctors so rudely is because of price gouging like this. It starts with the resource sellers and filters down because everyone wants a big piece of the pie. There are doctors out there who are unwilling to settle for less than 900+ meat and they pay ANYTHING to get it. You are the ones who drive the prices up. Players will sell the meat at what the most desperate person is willing to pay.
