Hey fellow Doctors. This seems like such a basic question, but after 15 minutes of searching I have not found my answer so I'm starting this thread. I apologize for any duplication.


I'm basically a field doctor. 99% of the time my buffs are applied my guild members or my hunting party members free of charge. For the former, I consider it my duty to my PA. The latter, well, the longer they stay alive the longer I will.


However, if I want to plop myself down on Lok in the med center, what is a fair price to ask for when someone asks for a buff?


At this point I'm guessing that it'd be something like 1K per stat or 5K for all 6 stats.


What is a fair price? I don't want to undercut the market, and I don't want to look like a greedy jerk.


Thanks,


Zibeon

I don't have set prices for my buffs. When someone asks what my prices are, I ask them to pay me what it is worth to them. 90% of the time I will get about 5K for all 6 stats. The leastwas 2500 and the most was 15K. People know what a good buff is worth. If a buff only hits for 800 they really don't want to pay a set price, but if it hits close to 3K they have no problem paying extra.

As for me, I charge 1k for health or action, 4k for the whole package, and I refund 500 credits for any stat that does not get at least a 1k enhance. I get plenty of customers, andI even have people come to me from other planets for my buffs. I use advanced components whenever possible, and my ABECs have been experimented for max charges. For my regulars, I sometimes give a price break, as I have over 1.25 million credits, so no need to worry about cash for a while.

When I'm bored and I'm standing outside of the Lok Shuttle, I sometimes sell buffs.


My pricing is simple. 5k for all 6. (I don't do singles anymore as it breaks up packs that all have the same number of charges) I also refund 500 for every buff that hits for less then +1000.


It's simple and it works. Now I wish I could charge people an extra 500 for every buff over +2000. =)

I don't charge for single buffs either. For all 6 stats, I will buff for 3k. A lot of people are willing to pay up to 10k for the D enhancers I've noticed. It all depends where you are I've noticed. The advanced planets you can find higher paying customers but less of them and on the starter planets, you find lots of customers but none too many willing to pay a high price for it. My suggestion would be to change your prices based on location because of the need and the natural economy of each planet.

With the randomness of buffs I charge 1 credit per state point raised ie buff 520 cost 520. Now for friends I charge a flat rate of 500 credits if I charge at all.

My first set of D buffs wern't great, so I sell them for 500 per stat or 2500 total and if I feel like they are too low of a buff, I give back 500 for that one. From that batch, I get no more than 2,000 increase while the lows might hit 600 range.


My new set of D buffs do about 1k to 2600, those will be priced at 1k per stat or 5k total, but have yet to sell them since I want to get rid of the older stuff.
