Just recently I was in front of the coronet starport and I didn't realise I was the only master doc around. I proceeded to buff a guildie and acquired a line. I told everyone that I only buff guildies but I was soon offered 50k for a buff so naturally I accepted. The line then grew longer and i informed everyone that I was only buffing because of the 50k, I was offered the same amount still. This went on until my prices went to around 30k a buff and 3 other docs showed up buffing for 8k a piece. This was on starsider at around 12 pm EST. You think 15k buffs cause a riot try, 50k buffs during peak time lol.

i buff for 25k and i dont buff unless im the only doc there, sure pricks get mad, but i tell em, hey man, i need to make money, just like you, im gonna take as much as i need, and know i can get. so if you dont want a buff go to coro or theed, or someplace else and wait for an hour.

I was there for some of that action also. 20k buffs sell just as good as 10k buffs. I think I will raise mine to 25k, because I hate buffing. I only do it for the cash. Nothing in the game could be more boring to me. (But who can turn down 25k for a set of buffs )

Yeah I don't offer my services, people persuade me for them. I don't consider it ripping people off if someone needs a buff that bad and offers me the cash for something I don't normally do. Money is always a factor

I retired from public buffing. Now I only do private buffing. I travel to where someone is and give them buffs. I usually only travel from Coronet to Mining Outpost and back. I have been charging 30k and staying busy. My buffs are 2300 +, 3 hours 40 min +. Yes, I have wound treatment clothing and food. 30k is not too expensive for buffs. The newbs and the pennypinchers don't use my service at all, so it frees up my time for my higher class customers that don't mind paying 30k.
