I just finished a batch of about 1000 seekers and I wanted to get a pricecheck so I sell them at an acceptable price. So, how much do you guys usually get forseekers and ark probes? How much do the BHterminals sell them for (if they still do that, I dunno)? And finally, how's your day going? :-)

I sell Seekers for 3 - 5k per crate and Probe Droids for 5 - 7.5k per crate. The BH terminals no longer sellBHdroids.

What I would like to know is how you made a batch of 1k seekers?

If you really want to make a 1k batch, you have to make 3 different runs of the electronics modules, rather than using 3 of the same. Gads, what a nightmare! Too bad this doesn't work for Advanced Droid Brains...

I don't like to make BH droids (I think it's because I can't play with them), but when people ask me to do it I tell them 10k per crate of 5 stacks, either type. Nobody has ever questioned that price.

You can only squeeze 999 out of them.I was being facetious

I don't generally crate BH droids...as I focus on other items.

When I do make them (uncrated) I sell a set of 5 charges for 2500 total (500 per 'charge').


It seems that is a pretty darned good price. I guess that's okay. I'd only use them as a "loss leader" and to generate good foot traffic to my shop.

Respectfully,

I sell single seekers for 1000 and probes for 1500 per droid. The crate are 5000 for a crate of 5 seekers and 7500 for a crate of probes. No discount. The only advantage to buying by crate is saved inventory space. I sell the single ones on the bazaar and crates from my vendor.

2k for a seeker, 3k for a probe. That's what the terminals used to sell them for (before they had charges) and anything less is just selling yourself short in my opinion.

I sell Seekers for 600 and Arakyds for 1000. I have a vendor in the Bounty Hunters Alliance PA Hall just outside of Mos Entha on Tatooine, so that gives me a steady flow of customers for those droids.

I realize that's not much profit on either kind of droid, but I'm offering them at that price as a deal with the Bounty Hunters Alliance. Others are also welcome to buy from that vendor and get the same prices.

I sell seekers for 5k a crate, probes for 15k a crate. Almost all of them are bought by one dude that lives near my shop who swears up and down that he can't find any BH droids anywhere but my place.

Today alone he bought something like 75k worth of goodies, and then wandered into my work room and tipped me 10,000 for being the only one taking care of him.

To be honest, there aren't a lot of DE's around anymore that actually keep up stock. I sell mine for 5K for a crate of seekers, 10K for a crate ofarakyd probes. They sell pretty well, but they eat up so much factory time that I hate making them.

Yesterday I sold 10 arakyds for 2500 each one. I usually sell seekers for 1250

On Flurry, I have two vendors, one on Corellia, one on Tatooine.

I sell my crates of Seekers for 7.5k and crates of Arakyd Probes for 15k. I did this as I kept selling out at lower prices.

I really want to concentrate on the more advanced droids and probots and don't want to spend all myfactory time on seekers/arakyds. Still selling without problems and no complaints so far about the price.

I've seen them listed on other DE vendors for as high as 30k per crate!!

Seeing that these take a large number of EMM and EGP modules, that also have to be factory run, seems quite reasonable to charge a hefty fee for them. They really are a pain to make, IMHO.

I agree. I stopped makeing them. I was using up all my crates of EMMs let alone GPs. If I happen to run into a BH bursting through Kadaara. I will hand make him some. Otherwise I tell him about other DEs, and they sell them in crates.
