I'm a doc and am thinking of opening a shop on Chilastra selling Doc/Medic goods and resources since my holocron said Master Merchant and I sell a decent amount of stimpacks waiting at the shuttleports anyway.

Just to get a feeling on this, what would you pay for a chemical release mechanism with ~120 "power" (whatever it's actually called) and 5 charges? I've never seen them sold anywhere before.

I think most customers would rather see the end product rather then one of the ingredients. If I had no other choice however I guess I'd pay 1/10 of whatever the price of a stimpack is because in a sense it is 1/5 of what it takes to make one. However since it is not the end product it should be half of what it's worth as a whole.

What on Earth are you asking?


For one thing, if you're referring to a Chemical Release Duration Mechanism, they don't have charges, only power. Secondly, even advanced versions can't get anywhere close to 120 power. The best I've ever made were 64 power and that was nearly perfect. My guess is that they can get up to about 75. The only thing that can have as much power as you mentioned (120), is an Advanced Liquid Suspension.


As for pricing goes, try to determine how much the finished product goes for. If the finished product is going for 10 credits/unit of resources, you can probably sell the subcomponents for about 6-7 credits/unit of resources.


Of course, the addition of herbivore meat, which can't be obtained with a havester, in an Advanced CRDM screws up pricing quite a bit.

I wouldnt waste my time on a component...


If I want to craft, thenI will craft everything... If I dont want to craft, then im not gonna do half of it myself...


I think you would have much better luck selling finished products.

Actually, it's not a CRM. I got excited when I saw it during the middle of battle and didn't read all the way thru the description of the item.

Forget my post.

Is it really a looted CRM component ? Or is it a rancor bile which is not CRM but dispersal for poisons ?
