Thread: Pricing of Sub-Component Crates
I've been considering selling sub-components by the crate. I would make batches of 1000 so there would be quantities for as much as people wanted to buy up to full runs of meds. Keep in mind that CM's cant experiment like doctors can (or have they changed this) and could benefit from better sub-components.
Keeping in mind the ability to sell high quality resources for more than 3cpu (I'm not talking about price gouging here), what would bean acceptable price for a crate of 50 of the following?
ABEC
ASDS
ACRDM
ALS
CRDM
My ABEC's have been in the 12/21 range but I've also got some 18/17 and 18/16 ABEC's
My ASDS have been either 46 (low quality) or 63 (higher quality).
I'm just curious as to what a fair price might be...Thank you in advance
Well, I don't sell individual components but I can give you an idea of what I would sell them for.
1. ACRDM - 1 crate of 50 : 18k - 35k, depending on the power. I know this seems high, but you have 16 units of herbavore meat and 16 units of class 4 liquid petro fuel, which only pops up for a couple days every 2 months on my server. I set my resource value at 10-11 creds/unit, and raise it as the quality gets higher.
2. ABEC - 1 crate of 50 : 12k - 22k, once again depending on quality. Tat Fiber can always be found, as well as Lokian Wild wheat, but it can take months to find a sweet resource to make the top of the line component and I say don't cheat yourself.
3. ALS 1 crate of 50 : 10k - 18k : Always seem to me like Talusian water was just the biggest pain in the butt to collect, but with the als you only need like 6 units per component so there's really no need to charge as much as you would for a ABEC.
4. ASDS - 1 crate of 50 : 15k - 25k : Two words; Dolovite Iron
