Wow, looking at this, no wonder I hear you guys complain that I sell an Adv Surgical with the best modules possible for 6k or likewise for a probot.

WHHHATTTT how do you stay in business

Nostradamus Smyth

6k for a probot? Why not just sell the resources instead? You'd actually turn a profit then...yeesh.

Try looking up how many resources a probot or surgical take - nevermind the time to craft or run the factory.

good site but dam.. those prices are way too much. I sell my R2's fully equipped for 20k. I sell about 2 to 5 R2's per day, good living i think. considering the amount of resources, i find my price is resonable. I rather sell resonable then high priced, because selling is half the fun. I would hate to get customers walk away after saying R2's are 68k according to your calculator website! 25k alone for a level 6 medic module??

Too funny. Prices are all over the place. 6k for a Probot? Assuming L6 armor, I sell mine for 18k and 23k for an advanced plus modules. Surgicals are 15k plus modules. Crafting station and L6 medical are 10k.

Nice site though. I wish we could do something like that in-game. LOL

MadCat has always had low prices and does not understand our desire to have the prices higher (viewing it as us just being greedy). You'll have to agree to disagree with her...as the 30+ posts on that topic will show

As far as my prices go, I don't think we'll ever all agree

I made over a million credits selling "stock" droids during my climb to Master and my mouse finger is tired! I'd rather price myself in the luxury arena and build fewer droids than have a mass-market price and do nothing but craft all day. There are still lots of things I'd like to do and see in the game, so...

Besides, it's all about supply and demand. I'll adjust my prices, up or down, until my volume matches the amount of time I want to spend building droids.

Thanks again for everybody's input and thanks, Sintrosi, for stickying this!

Aren't armor modules in probots worthless? Did they fix this without me noticing?

Nice set of scripts. Can't say I agree with your pricelist tho. And I did find a few minor problems, such as the probot not charging for armor, and the adv probot complaining about crafting modules in the second module slot even when the first slot didn't contain a crafting module.

Given the usefulness of the script, would you consider making it available for other DE's to play with?

Hehe, I sell a fully loaded adv R3 for 10k your prices are, well, amazing. I would rather see resource cost/shopping list than pricing.

10k? How the hell do you make ANYTHING on that considering R3's have something like a 25% crit fail rate?

Thanks for the bug report, Gorantoth. I took a shortcut on the multiple crafting module test and it bit me in the butt. Go figure.

As far as sharing the source, I have no problem with that. If anyone is interested, you can contact me through the link on the Configurator page. I was actually thinking of adding a Server dropdown and letting DE's on other servers handle the non-Lowca orders, but sharing the code works, too.

Nice job ... man am I undercharging...
