I have started to make Probe droids and Seekers

I have been looking at prices, right now I price them at
Seekers: 1000 Probe droids: 1300
is this WAY of or am I on the right track?

I'm on Chilastra too and I charge 5k for a crate of 5 Seekers and 8K for a crate of 5 Arakyd. So your prices seem about right. It's pretty varied though, I've seen crates of Arakyd on our server range from 3k to 15k.

I would recommend selling them as crates rather than individual droids though. My other character is a BH and I never have the room for individual probe droids, so I always buy them in crates.

Hmmm... on Chilastra, I sell them for 5k/10k a crate for seekers/Arakyds. Singles move well enough on the bazaar for 1k/2k.

I used to charge 5k for a crate of seekers and 6k for a crate of arakyds. But once my vendor become known, I found it hard to keep the vendor stocked at those prices. I have since raised my prices to 9k for the seekers and 10k for the arakyds. my sales have dropped slightly, but my profits have increased, and, more importantly, I haven't lost any customers. My customers were buying more than they needed because the price was too low. Now they buy only what they need and I am able to keep the vendor stocked.

Keeping the vendor stocked is the most important thing once you've established yourself. As soon as your customers see an empty vendor, they will start looking for another supplier...

I'm on Ahazi, and I sell them by the crate for 5k / 7.5k. They sell at a pretty brisk rate, but that may have as much to do with my Bounty Hunter vendor's location as anything else.
