I bought one yesterday, and i did let the new player decide the price.


Don't think there was anything wrong with that.

It's only worth 29.99 which translates to what, 8 mil credits on ebay?

I bought mine for Two million, after he only wanted 1 Million for it. Plus I got two new citizens because of it.

BARK speeders are nothing special and i don't now why everyone is making such a huge deal about having to have one.My swoop is good enough for me, sure it doesn't go up hills very good, but it serves it's porpuse, that is, GETTING ME TO WHERE I NEED TO BE!

Well, I have a dumb question. I went to give my speeder to my other account and couldn't figure out how to get it out of the datapad!

What is the magic for making it transferable?

Trade it via a trade window. Just drag the speeder from your datapad to the window.

I agree.. keep your barc speeder a few months before you sell it. let the supply come up and watch the price go down. That way you wont have the extra few million to get on your feet, but hey, at least you will have a barc speeder you cant afford to repair.



The price of the barc speeder is only equal to its dollar per credit resale ratio if they only bought the boxed game to get the barc speeder, not if they actually bought it to play the game...Bought separately the game and two expansions cost about 75 bucks. Buying the way they did, they only spent 40..... so the barc speeder must be worth about minus $35 or 7 million credits. To helpeven the financial playing field, i am willing to take your barc speeder and the first 7 million credits you make off your hands.


I paid a million credits, a swoop, a house and full suit of armor to get my barc speeder. I think that I would have been thrilled with the offer when i started the game.

These questions about whether the BARC is better than other speeders can be answered very finely on the Mos Espa race track. These are roughly how I remember my times:


Swoop time: 390 seconds give or take, it depends on how you handle the track.


BARC time: 340 seconds give or take, it depends on how you handle the track.


Try it yourself, race the track with a swoop then race the track with a BARC.

How rare could it be? Anyone who really wants it can buy the total experience packeither now or wait till price drop. It's not like the AV-21 which you must buy with in-game credits.
