Whats the rate? 600 a seeker? More? Do old seekers have charges now also (I just finished a factory load).

I have been charging 850 per seeker, crate of 5 for 3500 or 700 per seeker. Let me know what you are charging. I may adjust all prices soon including seekers.

I made a seeker last night and I did not appear as though it had more that one charge. I have not been home today to confirm this though. Is it apparent to us when we make new ones that they have charges? And, has anyone been able to confirm this yet?


Thanks

I just logged on and saw that my seekers were all sold, so I emailed the buyer to find out if they had 10 charges or not. You want to know the response I got?



To be honest I cant tell you, I just a merchant that buys your seekers and sells them for 1K. Sorry.



Man....

Heh. Well, I've been pricing Seekers at 450 credits a unit, but with this change I'll push it to 1,000.


Come one, come all and take the last of my old stock of seekers, I'm not changing the prices on the ones currently on my vendor.

"To be honest I cant tell you, I just a merchant that buys your seekers and sells them for 1K. Sorry."

Aww, thats harsh. I just put a backpack containing 5 seeker droids up last night. If they sold, I will write the buyer and inquire about charges, then post results here if no one does first.

Should we try to reach a desicion as a proffesion on the base price of these droids now that they actually have some enduring value?

Hmmm...

Yes we should. Because BH count on us now for thier missions.


I guess I should of been charging 1K all this time, because if this guy buys mine and sells them, he must be selling them.


He bought all 15 of my seekers and Akakyds.

man I just realized I told this guy he might get 10 charges instead of one now. I bet he going to charge a bunch of money for them. Because at first he only bought 5 of them. Then about 5 mins after we talked he bought up the rest of them.


I think I just lost my shirt for nothing .


Man it is a bummer. i dont blame him though. Hes making money I guess. Wont be buying anymore though when we start selling at a fair price.

At 1000 each, we're getting 5.8 credits per resource for the droids and provide affordable droids for the BH... suggest bumping probes up to 1500. BH droids profit will all be in volume of sales, screw the BHs and you might as well not bother making the droids cuz another DE will undercut you easy.


FYI, I was selling mine for 300 per seeker, and 1250 per probe before I found out.. the BH that told me was instantly sorry he did tell me too LOL...


Now, I hear probes are still good for one use, and the post did say probots... anyone lose a probot yet and try vitality pack?

I'm ok with other people undercutting my sales of seekers and arakyds. They are simply a pain to make, and is a WONDERFUL thing for Novice DE/Master Artisan to capitalize on.
