Hey Guys,
I'm thinking of doing a Probot run and was just wonder what the current market value is. I'm a recent Master DE and was planning to construct an Advanced Probot with fully stacked Combat Modules so assuming an above average rating as I have well balanced resources what's a ball park figure.
Thanks in advance for your replies.

Well depends.. with lvl 6 armor (which has become absolutly pointless, but if your like me youll have 2000 extra modules which are now usless so you might aswell drop them in and charge more) i would go with 24k, altough higher isnt unreasonable.

Thats so low a price, by the time you buy all the factories and harvesters to get the multiple resources required how are you ever going to make any money.

Crikey 25k? I couldn't feed the 7 children if I sold em for that. May as well pay me in bags of peanuts.
Personally I'd charge more.

Average price on "expensive" servers, like Eclipse or Starsider are 50-80K for maxxed out models.

Looks like I should have researched this profession a lot further before taking it on.
Are there any droids actually WORTH making.

Medical droids are pretty essential, how many Docs do you see without one.

If I were you I wouldn't stack up on any specific droid, but rather work on making the various components and modules.
I work on aorder only basis. Meaning that I either get a tell or an email asking me to make a droid for them. Having the various components already made up means I can fill the order pretty fast.
I dont have all the various modules or components made up but the ones that are asked the most is laying about in crates ready for use.

I've sold them from anywhere between 60-70k on Starsider.
100% quality combat modules, with LVL 6 armor.
