Before I put the energy and money into my harvestors to try and push this fiberplast onto the medical market, please be honest. Would you buy this stuff?


Apew

OQ = 899

UT = 139


As you can see there is a drastic contrast between UT and OQ. I realize this fiberplast is essencial to making good buffs. So, please be honest, would you buy this for anything other than grinding? Is it even useful?


Please understand I just got into te resource business so my funds are very limited. I cant really afford to fund harvestors if the metals arent going to sell.

I probably would not buy it. However, I am sure that someone would. Not everyone pays attention to the UT on a fiberplast, either by naivete or choice.UT is only important for charges on the component. Some docs choose to experiment that particular component for power instead of charges and those docs would buy this resource.

I know it's a broken answer but it depends on the server. On tempest stuff very similar to that with 100 less OQ is going for about 7 cpu...and selling. There though it's a matter of many of the needed resources not spawning, or not spawning well, for about a month now.


Me, I would pick some up provided the price reflects the lack of UT. So, yes, I would buy it.

Any tat fiberplast looks good when you've had some crappy shifts.


I'm using stuff that is not as good as that, just because it is all I could get my hands on.


I just keep harvesters on tat fiberplast all the time, regardless of quality... I keep the good stuff, and sell the stuff that isn't as good. It sells very quickly at prices that I'm happy to get.

In addition to there being several bad shifts in a row and even that UT looking good...


Sell it for 3-5cpu on the bazaar... there is always some holo-monkey grinding ABEC in practice mode for whom stats don't matter one iota. In fact, the crappier the stats, the better, they could care less as long as they get to unlock their FSCS, the sooner the better.

As long as thereare Crafters,aspiring Doctors and Master Doctors, there will always be a market for Fiberplast. Heck, I've purchased lower quality OQ and UT just because it was the cycle for it. However, I do like the idea of a price that reflects stats per unit.

I would have to say it is server and price dependant. Several shifts in a row a poor resources will drive the price up, even for poor quality stuff. You can move just about anything at the right price, even low quality stuff. Some Doctors would rather buy lower quality stuff to use in meds where stats matter less, than use high quality stuff. Here is an example of how the market drives the prices:


Bria has no spawnsClass 4 liquid petro currently andthe previous spawn was 124 OQ. As you can see, there is a shortage of a key component. I saw 950 OQ class for on the bazaar a few days ago for 20 cpu and 72 OQ on there for 6 cpu. I checked yesterday and they were not there, so they must have sold. Any other time those sales would have not happen due to there being a supply of the resource.


Tatooinian Fiberplast is always there, but the quality is all over the place. Use your best judgement.

Tat Fiberplast will always sale. On Tarq fiber has been pretty crappy. But to be honest if your price isn't too ridiculous you can always sale Tat Fiber to docs, cause Advanced components are always! better than there counterpart.

As a resource dealer I just finished selling 2 shifts of tat fiberplast of which none of the stats were over over 500, the last with the oq being 25 and they sold for 3cpu ..... grinding purposes of course ... thing is - I have doctors coming into my shop daily so it all depends on if you can get your hands on the market.

Personally I wouldn't because I'm only interested in UT in fiberplast. If you make abec's for POWER rather than CHARGES, you probably don't know what you're doing or have some insane notion that +10 in power is worth more than +10 in charges (or whatever it comes out to be).

That said, I'm on starsider and we just had a shift with UT > 900 and OQ > 500, followed by a new shift right now which has somewhat worse stats but still UT > 900 and OQ > 500. Whether or not that would sell would depend on the history of the fiberplast on Chilastra (I'm guessing that's where you're considering this).

Thanks for all the help!


I'll probably end up just selling this stuff on the bazaar rather than in bulk on Wall Street (aka, the area in front of Coronet Starport) for about 3-4 CPU.


Thanks again for the help, if you need resources on Chilastra (for the time being only fiberplast though, im still just getting my feet wet...or dirty, whatever) feel free to put an order in.

Not only HoloDrones are grinding med crafting. I've caught myself a time or two entering practice mode on ABEC with 4-5 crafting tools. ANd I'm a Mast Doc/CM for good. Jedi class seems like it requires too much fighting for my liking.


And yeah, the crappier the better cause ya don't feel so guilty wasting it.


But being the greedy bastage I am, I'd still sell it 10cpu, and get it. May take a while, but will sell
