Thread: Who buys crates of electronics and how much do you pay?

I know some Master DE's would like to drop master artisan all together but would need a reliable person to buy crates of electronics from. I would like to do this eventually myself (drop artisan) so I ran schematics for 1000 crates of each type of electronic to last me a long time but now I have a surplus of stock so need to sell some crates myself. How much do you guys pay for crates?


Right now I have GP mods,Memory mods,Control units and energy distributors on the vendor for 4k a crate which people seem willing to pay. The sensor suites will have to cost much more because they take way more resourses but I havent figured out a good price yet.


Any feedback is appreciated


Thanks

Personally, I just pay a MA to make the schematics for me (0-10k per). When doing runs of 1000 parts, transporting that many crates is a total pain. I'd rather just drag from the input hopper to the output hopper.

When I bought them I paid about 100c per part, though the guy did end up raising the prices on his vendor to 200c each or so. Now I just get the resources, run into a busy city, offer some master artisans a quick 5k, and go run them through my own factory. Its easy, cheap, and reliable. Micro sensor suites would be a little harder, but still not too bad.

Yup, paying someone to make you a schematic is much more efficient (and cheaper).


I paid 10k to have a Composite Armor Segment schematic made for me. I'll probably never use 1000 segments, but it was worth 10k just to have the schematic handy in case I ever need it. Stash the resources for it in a separate pouch or put 'em in a side room in your house and you can keep that schematic usefulfor a VERY long time.

When I dont feel like running my factory for that silly things I buy crates from another MA i know in Ahazi (ritha). Shesells me crates for 2500 and she can supply me efficiently and quickly
