Agreed. Personally i think its the most fugly ship in the game. As a target, It has one of the largest profiles. So i just dont understand the value people seem to put on this ship. So the "fetts" flew one in the movies... whoopty do. It shoulld have remained as the privateer master ship like it orginally was in beta, not as the fetish cult object it is now.

Careful selling your space loot right now. Some chassis dealers are currently bugged and only offer 500 credits for various loot...one of which was a lvl 10 cannon. Make sure you're getting what you're supposed to.

Here's an idea. Help the economy and sell to your friendly neighborhood shipwright instead.

Hummm, wonder what condition the parts were in. It could be if you used up a looted parts usefulness, as in very low hit points and armor, you don't get the full price. It could be, or it could not be, I am just guessing.

I do believe if the part level and reverse level are not the same then you get 500 credits. might wanna check that out

I'd do just that except:
1.) I never see any advertisement that their buying any.
2.) When they do want to buy it, they want it at the same prices as the dealer offers. Wheres the incentive to keep the stuff cluttering up my bank/house waiting for a SW to buy it, when i can just offload it to an NPC right away for the same price?
3.) Of the loot that i do keep, the RE/statstical value of the loot tends to be FAR FAR greater than the monetary or equipment compensation they offer for it.
In short, i've started to keep the good stuff for myself, the rest goes to the chassis dealer.

I don't think any shipwright would appreciate the crap I was selling to the chassis dealer, and frankly Idon't have theinventory space to carry around bagsfull of 38 speed droid interfaces and lvl 9 60 speed engines until I can find a SW to purchase it from me. The point here is that the Chassis Dealer is not working as intended, what I do with my loot is my business.
The level 10 stuff I was not planning on selling at all...it was just in my inventory when I landed. I almost sold it by accident since it was listed at such a low price. As far as condition goes, everything was at full condition as I had JUST landed from looting all of it. It's possible that the RE level could have been different than the Certification level on that stuff, but I'll have to check it when I log back in.

Bingo.
Everytime you sell space loot to the chassis dealer you're just making the Firespray that much more rare.
You want Firespray prices to go down? Sell parts to shipwrights.
You want to eventually maybe own a Firespray? Sell parts to shipwright.
You want to NEVER have a Firespray? Continue selling to chassis dealer.
Case closed.

All level 10 looted componetns are worth only 500 at dealers! I mean all, so it has to be a bug. Firespray? Don't need one.

I put all my stuff worth using on the bazaar for 4k and havent had a problem selling any of it. There is some stuff not worth keeping though, and i destroy that while still in space, to make room for more.
