I'm about to put up my first Vendor. What's a good X-34 price? Up till
now I've been selling them on the Bazaar for 6K but I'm sure they're
worth more. Thanks.

Depends on server but 3 cpu should be the least you should probably sell for. 10-12k i think for X34. Not much demand for them though. Swoops and speeders will get more sales.

Sukrat;
Let's look at it from your cost standpoint.
An X34 uses 1125 Nonferrous (Aluminum, Copperor Unknown NonFerrous) and
3125 Ferrous (Steel, Iron or Unknown Ferrous) metals.
That's a total of 4250 units of metal.
You can sell even "crap" metal on the bazaars for 2 cpu, so the VERY bottom dollar for an X34 would be 8500 credits.
However, if you have gone to the trouble to get very good (>950 SR Ferrous and >850 SR Nonferrous) metal, unless you mined it yourself (costing you 2 to 3 cpu, depending on the concentration %age and the BER of your harvester), it would cost you anywhere from 20 cpu to 50 cpu to buy that good of materials.
That could bringYOUR COSTtheoretically to anywhere from 85,000 to 212,500 credits!
Price them anywhere in between at a price you feel your time learning Master Artisan is worth.
I harvested my own Steel and Aluminum, got >990 SR steel and >870 SR Aluminum, and charged 50K for X34's, 65K for Speederbikes and 85K for Swoops, as I also spent the time AND RESOURCES to get 97% Experimented Efficiency on all three.
They popped out at over 98.58% of the rated hitpoint capacity, i.e., 2467 on the Speederbikes and Swoops, and 2957 on the X34's!
They are absolutely the BEST BIKES ever made on any server, and are worth that and more, if one wants a) bikes that don't take as much damage, b) bikes that decay slower, being's that they start with higher hitpoints, and c) a cool bragging point with your friends. 
And I sold dozens of them, hopping on the high concentration sites of both the Aluminum and Steel with 5 Medium harvesters each.
Good luck, have fun, and Be Safe! It's a Jumble out there! :->

Anything more than 30k for a speeder is highway robbery. Especially since you can't tell by looking at item if it is any good or not.
Personally since they are so easy to destroy in pvp, I usually carry only cheap ones, nothing worse than blowing 100k on a speeder only to see it destroyed.
