This topic is a bit controverse I think since we have alot of different approaches to it and many of them seem to work for their respecting users.

Most IDs (non-Masters) seem to charge 10-20k creds for a statmigration while doing the rest of their work for tips or fixed low prices. Myself included. I usuall charge 10k for the migration and 1k-5k for other stuff, depending on the customer and the amount of changes I did. It works very good for me and my customers.

Master ID usually charge fees, that are a bit higher, due tu their Master-status and the greater range of changes they can do. This helps us non-masters, too, since customers first ask the non-masters and so we learn the trade faster, too (means: we are getting more xp and more different customers, not only statmigrations, which are of course best for xp, but a nice haircut and/or Cosmetic-workover is allways a nice thing todo, since it's the first reason why most of us are ID. )

Some IDs charge higher fees for their work, especially the stat migrations and seem to be happy with that, too- I have seen prices asked as high as 50k and sometimes even more than that.

Well, the best way to set your prices is to talk with the fellow IDs in your local Prison of style... er... Salon, and cooperate with them. Nothing is more annyoing than a fight over customers between IDs.

I hope this helped you a bit.

May the Force be with you all!

50k for a stat migration, including 10k service charge equals 60k! I get hassled on my server for charging 15k, I wonder what your customers say to you. I ask 1k for a hair change, 2k per change if it's more difficult, more if I don't like the client, 10 to 15k for a whole makeover, and always 15k for a stat migration. No service charge.

I only have a fixed price of 30k for Stat Migration.

Rest is fun enough that I base it off of tips.

I choose 30k to follow suit with other IDs on my server [thanks Kwee] general price guides.

It also fits rather nicely because it falls squarely at half what I'd make if I'd just "Stay home" and hunt janta.

Keep in mind that thevalue of a credit is different depending on what sever you are on. For example I normally play on Wanderhome. I full set of good doctor buffs costs 6k i've been on other servers where the "standard" price is 12k. The older servers seem to be much more inflated then the newer ones. Probably due in the most part to a widelyused credit duping exploit that was patched before the newer servers went live.

Well partially that.

There's also largely that the older servers had benefit of some rather well paying endor missions, and simply just being older so that there's money in the economy and more heavily refined resources and such that produce higher quality equipment [such as the 80-90% composites pre-slice you see on starsider now].

I am on Bloodfin and I charge 10k for stat migrations, 5k for full set of holoemotes and I do the rest by tips. Here is a site that has a section to assist you with your pricing decisions.
