Thread: Crystal questions
on kauri, unidentified singles go for 200k-500k, twins from 200k-400k.
Identified crystals go for more if they have good stats, and a bit less for bad.
Colors is a personal preference thing, but i've seen the most demand for red, blue, and purple.
Singles 350k and up
Twins 200k and up
All depending on stats

I personally consider a fair price for a typical "single"crystalto be around 300k. Twin crystals are worth less because they are only useable by the most advanced Jedi, so the demand is not as high. Much more than 300k for a normal single crystal, and people are just gouging. There are some crystals that are worth substantially less, and a few that are worth a little more. If it's a "normal" crystal, though, my suggestion would be 300k.
I've been amazed at some of the prices that people are asking for crystals that are absolute garbage. There is one vendor on my server who sells a wide variety of goods and has crystals fairly regularly (I won't say her name here, but if you're curious, just do a casual search in the Flurry trade forum).The problem is, she apparently has her own Jedi, and only puts the junk crystals up for sale, asking 500k to 700k for them. It's insulting. As a consequence of this, I refuse to buy anything from her or any other vendor in her town. On top of the Jedi character, every current Jedi also hasa "normal" character. For this particular vendor, she has not only lost my Jedi's business, but she has permanently lost the business of my normal character.
People need to stop holding Jedi hostage to a system that the Jedi character cannot actively participate in. With Publish 9, things will change a lot, but Jedi are going to remember who treated them fairly and who tried to bleed them dry. I'm pleased to see that someone is asking what a fair price will be, rather than looking for a sign of how much money they can squeeze out of only a moderately useful piece of loot.
Good luck!

why? once the game starts losing all its players to the new mmo's this summer and fall, bria is gonna be one of the few servers left up, since its the largest playerbase.
