As many of you know, I have returned after a 7-month hiatus to find a plethora of new droid modules and configurations available. As I ramp up to restart business, I was wondering if those who stuck it out could share with me what droids and configurations are selling the best. I appreciate any feedback.

I've been selling a lot of combat droids (both R3's and probots) and entertainer droids (R3's with all 6 entertainer modules) lately... then again I spend a lot of my time in the cantina so my entertainer droid sales may be a bit skewed. I'm also selling a decent number of medical droids (just about every configuration of them you can think of).

well in the last week i've sold over 150 crates of Arakyds and 70 crates of seekers....had to bring out my factories again and am cranking GPs and EMMs for the Arakyds....thanks devs for taking master scout out of BH....more BHs to buy me droids....

regular droid orders are slim to none now, but i'm selling the BH droids at a fast paced....a crate of Mouse Bombs at least once a day and a crate of batteries a week....

For me, it is mainly Seekers and Probe droids... Go figure... Now there's more BH's about...


Otherwise, it's ISD every now and then... And custom orders (rare)

I don't really advertise or have my vendor in a mall but right now I sell mostly Medical Droids (Med 110, Storage - 10, food/chem station, data storage - 10) and Scout Droids (4 x harvest mods, 1 x trap module, 1 x storage module).

It seemed that whenever someone bought a droid, they would pick up a full damage probot also....kind of like a pack of gum at the store counter Autoheal probot tanks and harvest master R3's(6 harvest modules) sold well too, even more so than 5 harvest modules and an item storage which is what I prefer.

However, I believe there is a market for everything. Before I retired I had a campaign out to market stimpack throwers, but unfortunatly I never got a chance to launch it.

Of course all docs need a droid to buff also. I always sold out of "field doctor's R3s" which consisted of a med module, item storage, food crafting and several variations of the other 3 modules (usually 3 stimpack throwers but some wanted 2 stimpacksand a combat module or a combat module and 3 stimpack throwers instead of the crafting station)

My philosophy was to have a well stocked vendor and with that pretty much everything would sell. If you start advertising like you used to, you should have no problem.

Thanks a million everyone, it seems as though the needs haven't changed too much during my absence (save for scout droids), only the configurations have.

Again, thanks Frog for this helpful information. I do plan to be an active DE, including advertising, so I hope you're right.

45% R3's = Combat,5autorepair+1 combat, entertainer, crafter+merchant+storage+med+1 combat+data-(i sell alot of these actually)

10% DZ70's = Combat, Autorpr, stor+med

5% R5 = Combat, stor+med

15% Probot = Combat, all autorpr

15% LE Rpr = Combat or 2autorpr+1combat-offer in sarcastic(red), Tech(black), Worshipful(blue), Prissy

(pink) ppl love that extra touch, sell mostly sarcastic.

5% MSE's storage+med- for 6k this net a nice profit and are easy to make in bulk, i sell the bomb ones for 5k

5% everything else, and r4's(mostly craft+stor+med)although isell many all r4's combat they dont do much better stat wise then the all r5's combat and are harder to make so...


this is my spread on droid sales

Most consistant sellers are various configurations of med droids and MSE storage droids (can't hardly keep those in stock). I do sell plenty of combat and harvest types too, but medic units still sell best for me.
