I've been getting some requests for crates of Stim B's lately and am not sure what to charge. My stim b's vary but all of them are around 420 heal and 40 uses. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I dont bother selling them by the crate, I just put em in the bazaars for 3k each and they sell out in a day.


You can make 150k from 50 stim b's easy, but I havent found anyone willing to pay that much for a crate.

I would put crates of 50 of those stims up for 84k and I know they'll sell out, but what the previous poster states about selling them for 3k each on the bazaar is also true.


It all depends on how fast you want to make your money, and what market you want to cater to.


Whether the bazaar is faster than a vendor is up to you to learn. I just know that recently ONE customer bought 14 crates of 50 stims from my vendor...


(you know, for a few seconds when I saw that sale I thought "**edit**, now I gotta make more to restock...")

Whatever you decide pricewise, it's important that you balance two things in particular:



  1. The cost of your resources/equipment so you can turn a profit, and

  2. The cost of your time so you don't find yourself going nuts trying to keep up.

That taken into consideration, feel free to charge whatever you feel to be a comfortable balance between those two, and let the frequency of your sales and the rate that your bank balance rises be your indicators of whether you're charging too much.

Personal as someone how buys stim b's


I will not buy from the bazzar single ones they are not value for money for what they heal at 3k


I will pay 70k for a crate of 50 which i think is a reasonable priceI have found someone who does this and he will get all my custom and i will recommend him to all my friends playing thus although he is not making a mega profit per stim his is selling an awful lot of crates thus he makes money and i get value for the cash i spend

Like Mapl3 said it all depends on the server. I for one am on Ahazi and I sell my crates of 50 for 45-55k and they sell quick! And I have seen them for 75k else where but with much less luke at selling. It also depends on the planet. And location. No one wants to travel to the edges of a planet when they could pay the same price for a crate right next to where ever they hunt. Dantooine would be a place to sell them for more than say corrrelia where no hunting happens. Plus the more comptition lowers the prices of the stims. If you sold those stim B's for 3k on ahazi at correllia people would laugh at you, but they would sell in a day or two on dathomire. See what I'm getting at......

I make two lines of stim b's "budget" and "super" and price them accordingly. That way i attract a larger sales base by being able to serve the newer and advanced players. The "super" stims are all advanced subcomponents, so the price goes up due to the herb meat and cl4 lp. So, if you are using resources that are rare, you should be compensated.
