hey I was wondering what you guys sell these lil bastards for? I am currently making a factory run of a thousand of them
I am assuming they are in high demand with JTL because I get orders for 10-15 at a time by guildies

Mine are going for 5k apiece. I carry crates of 5, 10, and 25 but they are all still priced at a flat 5k per chip. I used to charge 1k each and really haven't noticed a huge decrease in sales after this bump. (Actually, I noticed a decrease in sales before the bump, but that's probably related to my advertising efforts not being as aggressive... as soon as I put a little more effort into advertising, the sales started coming in again.)

Sorry to say, but your prices are way over-inflated.
Considering that some of the commands are bugged, and no noticeable effect is seen apart from the droid unit beeping, I think you may well have to either hit the market as it is at the moment, before peeps discover the above, or sell at a more realistic price.
They are only chips that you can use once anyway!

Sounds reasonable. Please do not change. Once they fix the probs with droid commands then you can put the price up if you want.

I sell my chips for 5k each and have no problem moving them. As so as more people work out that they can use programmed chips from other factions, I expect to sell even more.

ok, my IE crashed when submitting, so sorry if this is a double post.
i've had a lot of success selling the chips for 8k each on my vendor.

Thing is, it's easier to get away with dropping the price, than it is raising.
Granted, I went from 750cr, to 2k to 3k to 4k to finally 5k yesterday.
Each time, I've never been able to keep them on my vendor for more than an hour at a time once I start advertising my vendor. All except yesterday, when I put up a dedicated vendor for flight computers/astromechs and modules.
Once the huge rush goes down, I will drop the price once the rush dies down.
But, while people are buying them, I think it's OK to sell them at that price.
Hell, I've seen my flight computers (which some may think over priced) and chips on other vendors priced even higher!

I sell at 5k apiece. They are my biggest seller to date. 125k for a crate. Crates sell like hot cakes for me. I'm making a second factory run of 40 crates now.

5k/piece here. I don't think that's unreasonable, and I have had no complaints about prices. I think people are just happy to find a DE that stocks them.
