Everyone knows that you are unable to sell anything over 3k in the bazaar. Why is thatI dont know, butI refuse to sell a crate of 50 for 3k. Anyways I am a Master Doctor and Master Combat Medic so there is no room for me to go up the Artisan tree. Any suggestions!!

Master Doctor

Master Combat Medic

Stand around in a populated area where there are high level people and spam messages.

Thats how i usullay find mine. If you dont have a merchant, then thats the only way. Other than finding somone that has a merchant and see if you can work out some deal where you sell to him wholesale.

Good luck,

Use the description field of your Bazaar item to state that you have crates available. Spamming is getting /ignor ed by more and more.

1. Advertise on your forum boards.

2. Put a small thing on the bazaar (like a stim A) for 3000 credits with an ad in the details field. People by now know that's an advertisement and will check it out or even if they don't they'll go "what in the world is that stimA doing for 3K" and click on it. That's what I did when I first saw one.

There is a master combat medic on Intrepid named Seps who does business this way. He sells by hand and does quite well. He can barely keep up with demand because he sells high quality stims at a very reasonable price.

either shout-spam (discouraged) or get a vendor to put the items on sale on, either your own, or a partners.

some people do it like this, sell the items to resellers for a discounted price, say 20% discount, then the resellers sell the crates for the normal price and order more when needed. this removes the need for the supplier to maintain a vendor of their own.

Some people know me by name and periodically request crates of meds. However, for the most part, I go through resellers. I have a couple businessmen that I partner with. I sell them crates of meds at a discounted rate and they sell my wares all over the galaxy. Right now, I believe that my stims are selling in about 9 shops across the galaxy - definitely giving me a larger customer base than I'd have peddling these things on my own.

I offer a discount to the resellers for a few reasons. First, it gives them more incentive tocarry my products (as they'll be making more money on them). Second, I don't need to worry about filling orders per customer - I just produce meds in bulk and I ALWAYS have a customer waiting - my reseller. Third, they're doing me a service. These are businessmen so they have access to a number of skills that I don't, such as advertising on the global map and running multiple shops.

To connect to my resellers, I simply put a post on my galaxy board and asked if anyone would be interested in carrying my products. I got a couple responses and it has worked out very well for me.

Obviously, this strategy might not fit you, but it has worked very well for me so I thought I'd share.

You could also try hooking up with someone, a guild or another player that is a merchant, and letting them sell your crates. If business isn't your thing, don't waste too much time on it, cause there are plenty of business types/merchants that are good at it. I think well done medical supplies are a lucrative enough venture that you can still make cash even if you have to outsource the vending. There are all kinds of deals to be worked out for that kind of business relationship.

I would say to look around your server for anyone that has a med shop already setup. Partner up with them and move your product through them. Or as someone else mentioned find a merchant and let them sell your goods for you.

I personally took the second route as I have a friend that wanted to be a merchant. It took hours to explain that there was no freigi in the game. But I can say I have no shortage of cash. Running around keeping resouces and factories going can be a pain some days but some of that will end once I get a good stock built up.

Just relize that you will make less selling through another part then if you sold on your own. But on the plus side you will not get tells from folks asking about products and you have a solid sale everytime you have product.
