On Gorah I see an item in "misc" available at a vendor that says "jetpack". It's catagory is "wearable container" though. He's selling it for 99,999,999 credits. I thought the jetpack was a type of vehicle? Is this the real deal or is this person trying to pull a scam? On the Bazzar, it doesnt pull any data on the item.

It must be on his vendor as storage. You can't put anything over 20k on the bazaar so you must mean vendor search. That price is a common "storage" item price.

theres an option on your vendor to turn off vendor wide search for that vendor. When you first make a vendor this option is automatically on so if you want to make a storage vendor you need to turn it off.

Hehe, yep I found this out when I was browsing the bazaar and saw some of my storage packs listed on it.

Nonetheless, I would highly recommend you never buy a container labeled "jetpack parts" regardless of the price, unless you know and trust the seller, and he/she has a good reputation in the server.
Some folks have been scammed like that... But an even better alternative would be to join a DWB group and try looting the parts yourself, also the jetpack base that does not drop in the DWB. Unless of course you're just dying to spend 70-80 million.

99,999,999 is the most common storage vendor price - anyone dumb enough to pay 99.9m for anything.. deserves to lose his money.

if its in a wearable container then it will be in misc under wearable containers. if its not under misc/wearable containers then its a scam.
also note there wont be any stats, since the only thing you can wiew is the wearable container. you wont be able to see whats inside till u buy it and open it. i dont think this is a scam, its his storage. not for sale

If they are still in deed fourm jetpacks can be found on vendors under deeds then do jetpacks
but most likely the owner deeded them
